Radiator shroud extenders?

1 Attachment(s)

I removed the small 6 cylinder radiator and replaced it with a V8 one.

Is there supposed to be a shroud extender installed to close this big gap on both sides of the radiator?

There's three pieces, two down the sides and one across the top. They have seals stapled to them.

The original seals look to be "C" shaped.

Okay then.

I just walked in from being out at the salvage yard and I did find the 2 sude ones with the rubber gasket still intact.

It never crossed my bald headed mind to look for one that went across the top. I wouldn't have found it anyway since none of the trucks at the yard still had a radiator in them.

Thanks though, now I know what I am missing.
