Re: New shroud or switch to electric fan?

I thought about that, O'reillys only sells a 2 inch spacer. Looks like I need to extend it at least 4 inches just to get to 2/3 in. Looks like I have another problem that I have overlooked. My fan clutch is shot, I can spin it freely and even tried taping it to the shroud and revved the engine and it never broke loose. So now i'm faced with replacing the fan clutch and shroud or going with electric. Think the cheapest and best route is the one 71Rat came up with.
