Having trouble finding a fan shroud for my BeCool crossflow for my 67. Even though I'm running a small block, I bought the 62016 BB radiator with side transmission cooler. Now that it's time to "fan-up", I can't find a shroud to save my life. I tried my stock BB shroud, and aftermarket VA shroud, and a stock SB shroud - none work. I'll even pay for a custom-made aluminum job - just don't know where to go to get one. Yes, I'm using a mechanical fan this time because the radiator is 1/4" thicker than the stock 4-core (from US Radiator). The VA FrontRunner serpentine system puts the waterpump pulley too close to the radiator to allow for an electric fan of suitable capacity. I did order one of the new Zirgo 16" 3300 cfm units, but since the come from across the water, the wait is horrendous. I just called and ordered a second one today just to have a backup. With a 6-week lead time, the electric fan won't be here by the time the car is done - so Derale mechanical it is!

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

check out www.allstarperformance.com (http://www.allstarperformance.com) they have some circle track aluminum fan shroud for some griffin and howe radiators and list the radiator sizes. austin performance carries this brand. you may have to cut down the plastic extention but the aluminum section of the shroud may work.

Thanks mucho! I'm such a dope - I was just in there the other day and remember seeing those now.....

I ORDERED A RON DAVIS SET UP ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO AND SHOULD BE IN FRIDAY THE 19TH. IF YOU LOOK ON HIS WEB SIGHT AT THE STUFF HE HAS TO OFFER, BET HE CAN HELP YOU. THEY SEEM TO BE CHEAPER THAN BE-COOL AND CAN CUSTOME BUILD WHAT YOU WNAT. SITE IS WWW.RON (http://WWW.RON) DAVIS RADIATORS.COM

A dual 11 inch fan setup might work for you as well.

I have a 66 with the Be-Cool BB radiator (no trans cooler lines though. I modified the stock plastic BB shroud to fit the radiator...

After painting the shroud, it looks fine, and works great...

I already had the shroud, and I eventually want to go with electric fans, so buying a shroud was out of the question for the short-term (which has turned out to be several years)...

If your electric fan is on the way (and will be here within 6 weeks... Why spend the effort and money to get a shroud to fit? A shroud helps with cooling system efficiency, but isn't always needed...
