This may be a goofy question, but here goes. Does the fan shroud from an Electra / full size Buick, with a 455 match the Skylark/GS fan shroud? Thanks, Mark
Larry, Thanks alot, I bought a motor, trans and radiator from the junk yard last week for misc. parts that I may need and the fan shroud almost looks new. I was hoping it would work and save myself a $100 on a repro. BTW this yard does have several undisturbed Large Buicks in it. 1960's- 1980's I just got for Bruce Durband a near perfect roof for his GS, for little to nothing. I'll be going back next week, so......
Yes, The 70 shroud, and 71-72 shrouds are different, but they will interchange. The 70 has a 20" opening and takesa screw on hose hook. The 71-72 has a 22" opening and uses a strap for the upper hose.
Hey, I might be interested in one of those radiator shrouds if you happen upon any more!! Let me know what you run into if you go back. Thanks in advance, Leon
Here is a link with helpful pics of the 70 version compared to the 71-2 455 fan shroud. http://www.buickperformance.com/BBShrouds.htm
