Do you need the fan shroud?
Anyone out there going without the fan shroud? Mine is torn up pretty bad and my "Car Guy" has suggested going without. Would the next best option be going electric?
Any comments or suggestions are welcome. |

Well, of course you know it is to aid in cooling.
The air would not flow through the radiator as effectively. I guess if you live in a very cold area, it would not matter (not implying that you live in a cold area). Be a guinea pig, I guess. Try it and see how you make out... I can only speculate not having tried it myself.

If you use a/c, you need one in city traffic to make enough air flow through the condensor.

I'll take all of that as a no...
 I'm getting my new rims and wheels installed early next week and then I'm going to tear into the dash replacement. Have a new radio to install too... The process is starting!!!
