How to find correct factory fan shroud for my radiator? - 03/15/10 01:24 AM

I've got a '68 Swepty that does not have a stock radiator. Who ever owned it before me took a Mopar radiator of some kind, cut parts of the sides off, and slipped it between the radiator supports. It is actually kind of nice because it allows room for a clutch whereas before it was direct drive only.

The problem is that I don't have a fan shroud for it and the 440 gets a little warm sitting in traffic especially in the summer time.

I ran down to Summit today hoping a stock B-body style fan shroud would fit but there's no way.

The radiator itself has 6 mounting studs for the shroud, the inlet from the engine is on the passenger side and the outlet from the bottom of the radiator up to the pump is on the driver side. As best I can tell, the part number on the radiator is 2898072. It looks like it is a 26" radiator for a '68 C-body with a 440.

Does any body make a fan shroud for this radiator or am I on my own?

Look for a 2785435. Not being reproduced but you should be able to find a good used one.

Good luck,
