cheers andy Title: Re: 1973 Thing Fanshroud Post by: benssp on January 15, 2009, 11:44:51 am Andy, it's a 73 shroud so it should be doghouse ;D
I offer $20, best one so far ;D Title: Re: 1973 Thing Fanshroud Post by: andy M. on January 15, 2009, 12:12:35 pm i know its a doghouse one you donkey! ;D
i had a nos trekker fan shroud about ten years ago and it had an air intake extension funnel shaped thing in front of the fan hole to increase the airflow, if its got that then i'd be more interested than if it's just a regular trekker shroud, Title: Re: 1973 Thing Fanshroud Post by: Zach Gomulka on January 15, 2009, 18:00:40 pm i know its a doghouse one you donkey! ;D i had a nos trekker fan shroud about ten years ago and it had an air intake extension funnel shaped thing in front of the fan hole to increase the airflow, if its got that then i'd be more interested than if it's just a regular trekker shroud, That would be news to me. The only d/h shrouds I've seen with the venturi are late model FI shrouds. Either way, it isn't a difficult or expensive task to weld a venturi on to that (or any) shroud. Title: Re: 1973 Thing Fanshroud Post by: drgouk on January 15, 2009, 18:16:10 pm Sorry, no velocity ring on the intake. Don'nt think they had been thought of in 73.
You do not see to many with the reinforced coil mount.

It definetly had the venturi because i sold it to a friend who promptly cut it off because he didn't know what it did!! ludites... andy Title: Re: 1973 Thing Fanshroud Post by: drgouk on January 16, 2009, 09:57:58 am i know its a doghouse one you donkey! ;D i had a nos trekker fan shroud about ten years ago and it had an air intake extension funnel shaped thing in front of the fan hole to increase the airflow, if its got that then i'd be more interested than if it's just a regular trekker shroud, That would be news to me.

Across too many oceans, that's all I have to say :( Title: Re: 1973 Thing Fanshroud Post by: drgouk on February 14, 2009, 21:20:59 pm Whats wrong with New Zealand?
I gave the shroud a Blast, Its a very clean shroud. Im using a Tf-1 case and do not want to cut a 1 year only shroud, So i will use a Scat 36 hp doghouse.

Title: Re: 1973 Thing Fanshroud Post by: drgouk on March 01, 2009, 01:21:13 am Will swap for a 911 Fan/Alternator, No shroud required, Let me know what you have.
