Thanks for that Chris. I thought that might work with the repro but I didn't want to drop $150 bucks and then start whittling on it. I decided to use the picture of that shroud and copy it with sheet metal. I also saw the guy that built the one from fiberglass. It looked perfect, but too much work for me. I don't know any thing about fiberglass. Metal I understand, I'm just lazy and hoped I could buy one that would fit right out of the box. Chris, that's the same fan and clutch I'm using but I've got the old '79 vintage pulley and belt system. I'll post some pics when I get it done.
