I thought installing a fan shroud would be fairly easy, but now I am frustrated and need some help. This is on a 454 BB car. I bought the aftermarket fan shroud from NPD. I have removed the fan but I still can not slide the fan and shroud into place behind the radiator. I have a few questions:
1. Are there different size clutch fans for 454 cars?
2. Should the fan completely fit inside the shroud opening because mine does not.
3. Do I need to remove the radiator along with the fan to install the shroud?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
 
You may have gotten the same shroud I got and I will not fit on mine. I am going to buy the two piece one thats for 70 chevelles and a four core radiator. The opening is 22" where mine is 19".

I'll have to do some measuring. Thanks. This fan shroud definitely does not fit :( I finally got the fan and shroud wedged in there, bolted the fan up and it still touches the shroud all the way around.
