Does anyone know where I can get a fan shroud for my 69 with a 22 inch rad and 18 inch clutch fan? Mopar performance has one for the 26 inch but I can't seem to find anything for the 22.                Rob

I have some cooling concerns also, found this thread, and Bob at Glen-Ray is awesome!  He said it's not very cost-effective for them to ship to where I'm at.  Yet he was still very, very helpful all the same.  Thanks for the reference.

If you have serious over heating issues, a shroud is not going to fix it.  It will help ... some ... but it doesn't work miracles.
Some people say thermostat, some say clutch, some say water pump.
If the pump is moving the coolant too fast, the coolant doesn't have time to cool down and help the engine.  Common for cars that have had A/C units removed but the water pump is still one for A/C.
Be sure everything is correct before you start throwing money at it with parts.  Just my  :Twocents:.
Here is also an interesting thread:

Well, in my case, the temp really start creeping if I sit in traffic too long.  Particularly during the summer months.  (It doesn't help that it likes a lot of timing and I'm not a mousey driver.)  Otherwise it cruises at a consistent 170-180 degrees.  I have a 3 core 22" radiator, stock pump, 180 degree high-flow thermostat, and a separate transmission cooler.  I'm hoping a shroud will help.  Otherwise I might also spring for the Hayden (2765) clutch and fan (2863216).  But that starts adding up fast.

Yes, I am in the assembly process of my car right now and I just want to avoid cooling problems with all the proper parts in place at the beginning. :2thumbs:
