What does this mean? Radiator question

What kind of fan are you running? Regular mechanical, clutch fan, number of blades, etc? Which water pump-regular or high volume?

Doesn't really sound like you need much, so the fan shroud might fix it by itself, but there's a lot more to it than just the radiator and shroud.

Also, I have a couple of original fan shrouds for 22" radiators and I'm pretty local, so I'll check the numbers on what I've got and see if I have what you need.

I'm running a fixed mechanical fan bolted directly to the water pump (7-blade) with no shroud. It has a spacer which puts it about 1.5" from the radiator. I also have a 7-blade clutch fan I could use, but the clutch is pretty stiff and probably needs replacing. The water pump in just an aluminum stock replacement (Autozone special). The radiator is a stock 4-core unit with low miles.

I've been messaging challengergary. If need be, I'll just pop for a new CC526 3-row 22" radiator and build a shroud since I've heard the reproductions are ****. I'd hate to drop $180 for a shitty repop shroud and I'm not really feeling an electric fan set-up since I have a stock 68 amp alternator and I'd rather not drop $150 for a good one.

If I could find a good stock shroud that'll work, that'd be great! Let me know if you'd be willing to part with one. Where abouts are you anyway?
