Bump...anyone use anything different than the stock 6.0 shroud?

do you still have the stock 12 valve shroud?
if so you might try to trim that to work until you can tig a new shroud.
also, you might try getting another 6.0 shoud from craigslist or ebay..

also, there are a number of people that have had luck with using the dual electric fans from the late model for taurus and contour...
hope this helps.

I have good luck using the 6.0 shroud with the 7.3 fan and clutch. You will need a hub adapter from GOS to mount the 7.3 fan.

I used the factory 6.0 shouf on mine with the common rail for 2 years before I installed electric fans and it worked great and fit like it was suppose to be there
