240zip Posted August 31, 2010 Share Posted August 31, 2010 We'd like to add a fan shroud to this 240Z with an aluminum radiator. Anyone else make one they'd like to share? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240zip Posted August 31, 2010 Author Share Posted August 31, 2010 Just for clarification. We're not asking for an OEM plastic one. I'd like a picture of one that's been fabricated. I'm thinking of something like the stock one only out of aluminum and TIG welded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doublez Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 You could check out RTz's build thread here - http://forums.hybridz.org/index.php/topic/79806-rt260-bmw-m-powered/page__st__80 His radiator is a bit different shape, but you could easily do something similar.

RB26powered74zcar Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I just ordered Item #:91042010 from these guy's>> FAN SHROUDS I will be using it with this HD Spal 12" fan I just received yesterday via FEDEX >> My NEW FAN link I searched for pre made fan shrouds, and found quite a few variations, but I have a very tight area to put a fan, and it has to be toward the top of the radiator, so I think these shrouds I linked above gives me something to work with. The only part I may modify, is to cover all the cute air holes with rubber flaps, that will help the fan pull more air thru the radiator while sitting still...

jhm Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Fabbed this shroud for use with my JTR aluminum radiator and Spal 16" puller fan. When the vehicle is stopped and the fan is running, the rubber flap seals holes in the shroud and forces more air draw through the radiator. At speed, the flap opens up to allow increased airflow through the rad. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmac708 Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 I just finished up mine a few weeks ago. I like the rubber flapper idea.. Maybe later. Gord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
