Is there a difference in a fan shroud for AC or non-AC 67-72 Chevy trucks?

GMC AMI · 07-02-2005, 05:22 AM

4x4 shrouds are deeper than 2wd and there should be no diff. if ac or not.

My a/c shroud look like all the non a/c shrouds I have seen, but I haven't done a side-by-side comparison.

is there a reason for the 4x4 shrouds being deeper?

I think the engines are set back further.

Yep! I have a C10 and a K10 and the distributor is almost on the firewall on the K10.

Thank all of you. I did see the difference between the SB and BB. The BB must be a very short engine because the shroud is very deep. I had thought I read something about AC and radiator core size that made a difference. Good to hear there is only one SB 2WD shroud.

The BBC shroud is shallow in comparison to the 4x4 shroud.
