Default Re: Fan shroud for my engine

I think AZKen already gave you the best answer possible.

<Quote>
Basics: The shroud should cover the whole radiator and the fan should fit about half in and half out of shroud. Fan should be in center of rad. Be sure you have proper thermostat. About 1" fan to shroud clearance all around the diameter. Shrouds do no good after 40MPH. In extreme cases of overheat, electric fans are used by some folks.
With no shroud, space fan to 1 1/4" from rad.

The only other answer is "do you actually need one?". You have a custom setup, there is no way someone can give you a specific answer when what you have is a semi-unique setup.
