    Machine shop called and my 455 is done! I’m debating on what to do shroud wise. I have an after market aluminum radiator I bought and was rolling shroudless with the small block that was in the car. I don’t have the proper radiator cover to use with the 455 shroud I got from TA (ta2040D) so I may try and pick one up. I also have an electric fan already too so I could use that as well. It’s the 2 speed style fan out of the early 90s late 80s Taurus that a lot of folks use. What year and/or style radiator cover will work for me.

    1969GS with a 1970 455 from a big car. If I look for one I don’t want to end up paying for the wrong one. Any reproductions available?

    You need a radiator cover from a 68 or a 69 Skylark / GS . The radiator cover is the same 350 or 400. The 400 shroud is pricey for a good original. TA should have a reproduction shroud. Tony

    I’ve got the reproduction shroud already but I was unsure on which cover to use.
