Kanga, I bought the fan shroud early in the build and went with it because it has an old look to it. It probably does look a little out of place in a high tech engine bay but I dont have much else to put in that area and Im happy with the look. I also had a header tank the same as you find on 427s, but had to loose it for the smaller fitting where the 4 water points enter and exit through the radiator hose with a cap on top. I couldnt make it work neatly with all the hoses and the original header tank.
Tenrocca, I bent the stainless sheets on a large press that had interchangeable sections to alter the finish to the corner being folded. The stainless cover sheets were laser cut. If anyone wants a copy of the program they could get them cut locally. Ive allowed for 6mm aluminium washers to go between the stainless and the fibreglass for an air gap.

Regards.
