    I know a lot of people have bought the Champion radaitor, what did you do for a fan shroud? Does the original fan shroud work with it? Im running a 6 blade 15 inch mechanical fan which works great and has a lot of air flow, but I need a shroud that will work with the champion and doesnt cost me an arm and a leg. My inline 6 never came with a shroud when I bought it and my tempature stays at 190 when sitting in the garage for 10 minutes. Im worried how it will do in traffic without a fan shroud.

    Wish I had an answer. I am going with elect. 190* really isn't bad at all.
    Maybe one of them JC Whitney chrome ones? :huh:.. That's what I had before.

    The original V8, AC shroud bolts right up. Maybe the 6 cyl will too?

    I did away with the inline 6 and went with a 302, So I need to find a v8 fan shroud with AC for it to work.

    Yep, stock shroud bolts right on... They also sell a fan built into a shroud with the radiator if you order it that way.
