I see you have a severe-duty clutch -- once you get the shroud adapted to fit, it should be impossible for that truck to overheat. Looking good!

Re: Clutch Fan Install getting mucho frustrated

I'll probably paint it semi gloss like the shroud but just sprayed what I had

Re: Clutch Fan Install getting mucho frustrated

Yes, nice work. I did about the same, but there's no plastic at all. The fan clutch fins are about 1/2" from the radiator.

Idk what the optimum distance is but a half-inch should work. I'm about 5" from radiator but I guess with that "Tunnel Effect" it'll work.
