Re: 383 Cooling Problems

["Dennis C." <dennis.2914@xxxxxxxxx>]

I did a lot of searching in the internet before I posted the question but didn't find anything except for the newer shrouds.
 
I just don't know why a later 60's shroud for a 22" radiator in a "B" body will not fit but they are not listed as fitting.
 
Thanks for the info, I'll keep looking.

The shroud will only improve airflow, indeed! Try it Dennis!

Did not some vendor repro these shrouds earlier this year? Hum....
<scratching head> I seem to recall talk that the repro was not a too good
fit, though.... Anyone?
