Fan Shroud?

What are you guys using for a fan shroud on your Shell Valleys?
Any pictures would be appreciated!

I have a 16" pusher fan and I am wondering if it will keep a bigger engine cool.

Thanks,

Killer

Just switched from a pusher (16" Permacool with fabricated aluminum shroud) to a puller. The puller should be in tonight and will let you know. The pusher had a small shroud around the blades only. The new one is slightly bigger, but still not a full sealed shroud. The pusher never did keep the real cool at idle, it would get above 210* in the 110*+ heat here but would keep it below 200 back in Wisconsin.

I also have a "puller" on my S.V. No shroud other than the fan housing. It stays cool without any problems.
