Default Re: Electric Fan and 600HP motor?

I did not use the fan's shroud from the tauras since the newer style radiators are so wide. I needed something that would allow me to mount this fan to the fairly narrow early style radiators. I wish I could take credit for making this, but a local racer that puts the aluminum on the tubular chassis did this for me. All he did was bend the aluminum in the proper dimensions, cut the old shroud away, and riveted it on. The whole thing is just slightly less than 4 inches, with one inch of that coming from the custom shroud which could have been made even less thick. The whole thing would not even be as deep as it is, but there is a bump in the middle of the electric motor that sticks out just a little.

No laughing at the engine either!!! It should be gone in two weeks, I hope!
