Exclamation Plastic Fan Shroud '67-'68 Delta/Delmont

Looking for this for a 425 car. Not sure if 350/330 shrouds are the same? Thanks, Erik

Erik, would this one fit? If you don't think it would can you measure and post the mounting dimensions?

I will have to look and see. I will be at the shop tomorrow and can get dimensions. For a not excellent condition shroud, price is a little steep considering shipping IMO....

John, looks like the dimensions are, and it is in the car, so give or take;
24" wide
18 3/4" high to pedestal where it bolts
Diameter 21"

Weird thing is, the shroud doesn't cover the whole rad on the drivers side? Few inches short......

Question

Let me know if the one I have will work or if the diameter is off.

Seems to be 1 year only('67) part....

This shroud seems to be a 1 year only part. The part # is 394297. Parts book shows C.A.C. , A.I.R. or HD cooling exc F85 and Toro. What does CAC and AIR mean?....so my search continues....

I'd try Howard's garage. They had a 67 98 they were parting out over the summer.

I've got a 67 Delmont convertible with a 425 that i'm just going to use the engine in. I'll check and see if the fan shroud is on it tomorrow.

CAC is "Car Air Conditioning" also known typically as option C60

A.I.R. is the Air Injection Reaction or "smog pump" that in that era typically means California issue cars. Pumps air into the exhaust. I forget the production code, perhaps K19?

Learning to speak GM parts language is not so easy. They use a lot of TLA's.
Driveshaft? Nope, that's a propeller shaft.
Dipstick? Nope, that's an Indicator, oil level.
