I'll rephrase..... looks small because of the gap in the shroud. The shroud doesn't do anything with a gap like that.
I measured the electric fan and it's 13 1/2" the opening in the shroud is 17". I understand your question now and see
that it will not be the most efficient.
that the radiator is for a automatic and a little larger than the one with a standart transmission that it will still cool the engine.With an opening like that later on isn't a 16" the next standard size?
