Since we're on the topic.. does anyone have any experience with the various amber/fiberglass sheet metal tin replacements. Any better than others? Thanks |
Due to the difficulty described here that's involved with cutting these shrouds to make them fit, I wound up cutting two or three of my six intake holes a little big. Is this going to cause cooling problems? Mine is not a Getty, but did require lots of cutting.

I totally agree with Damon's fan shrouds being the best in town.
His company: Series 900 No offense to the originator of this thread, but his shroud does not look very "amber" to me. It's more of a washed out off grey. Perhaps it's just the camera? Here is my Series 900 amber fan shroud that I put on my 2.7 RS MFI engine. Now that's what I call amber! As far as I know, very little if any work was required to get it to fit. It looks great IMHO. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1576381690.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1576382008.jpg |
All shrouds exit the mold needing edge trimming.
Most come out of the box looking like this (hopefully not distorted): http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1576602174.jpg However, the final fitment requires install holes as well as six cutouts for the intake system (EFI or carbs). http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1576602621.jpg A Dremel tool with carbide cutter and sanding drums: http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1576602896.jpg http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1576603653.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1576604005.JPG http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1576604481.JPG If an amber shroud appeared on your recent rebuild, someone spent time for a proper fit. Add a few hours onto the rebuild schedule. Sherwood |
^^ Which shroud is that? ^^
I'm a little less worried, your intake gaps look similar to mine. I suppose once my carbs are back on it'll be sealed up a little better. |

I know this is an old thread but are Series 900 shrouds still the one to get? I’m in the market and have called and emailed Series 900 but haven’t gotten a response. Wondering if they’re still producing them?

I got the one from EB Motorsport. Rothsport carries them in the UShttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1622011458.jpg
