There-in lies one of my problems - I could never MAKE a shroud. I wish I could - maybe out of foil-wrap. I will check out that website, thanks.

> Hey all - A few weeks ago I was talking asking The List about  radiators - all said-and-done, I decided on the Hall radiator, since I wanted brass/copper instead of aluminum.  And, yes Mike Drew, I have to admit it’s because I want to, not necessarily NEED to. It ain’t broke, but I am fixing it(?). Didn’t want to admit that, but...Lol. There really is an ulterior motive, but I just don’t want to mention it right now; but I ran my idea past  Brassworks  - who says they will “build-to-suit” - but the Hall unit looks to be “tried-and-proven”. 
> Now - fans. I really don’t know the brand name of my fans, but they are suckers - about 12” diameter - and the blades are “curved”  - sickle-shaped. The names that been bouncing around are Mariah, SPAL, and Flex-a-lite. I had read someone’s post about the Flex-a-lite’s since they said they can be - or are - mounted in a shroud that is a perfect match for the Pantera radiator size. I think. And someone offered-up  a part number, but I deleted (or lost) it. All normal for me.
