Re: fan shroud mounting brackets?

I used a stock big truck radiator which is 1" thicker than the 1/2-3/4 ton ones. It came with mounting tabs for a shroud, I just made 18 GA brackets to adapt the shroud I had to the brackets. The first time I made tin brackets that use the radiator mounting bolts. Shroud is off of a 70 Mustang, I am sure I just went out to the wrecking yard in 85 when I put in my first V8 and found one that was close. here are two photos one before I fabbed the adapter bracket, one after.
