Hey Johnny, what size fan did you end up using on the jolly rodder? I put a 16" fan on mine today and I had to take it off. It was too big. I would never be able to put a shroud on the radiator with a 16" fan. That is the only thing that is keeping me from firing the engine up. Thanks!!! :thumbsup:

Hey Tony,

you know i'm using a modified '66 Bel-Air fan shroud, right ??? if you don't mind hangin' a bit i'll go measure fan diameter and shroud diameter... be back in a couple minutes ;)

17-1/2" fan in a 19" diameter shroud... probably not much help to ya, huh ???

yer running stocker shroud, right ???

Stocker shroud, but the fan is to big for it. I'm almost tempted to put an electric fan and shroud on it. How cool does your engine run?

Tony (and oh yeah, thanks for the help big guy!!)

well as far as i know it's never been over 185*

all i have is the idiot light but i checked with a guage on one of our hottest days after a long day of stop & go driving. i haven't as of yet bought aftermarket guages for it.



Johnny (and as always) yer very welcome ;)

Thanks again Johnny. I'll post up a video of the engine break in when I'm done. Have a good one!!
