well i searched and didnt really turn up any good info on what im wondering. I have an e fan off of a ford escort. Its shroud is to small to cover my entire -SE radiator. Does the shroud have to cover the radiator completely? If so i believe i can make a custom shroud, but does anyone have any advise on doing it?

 

I have a black magic 150 electric fan and it doesn't cover the entire radiator either but it works great. I think it comes down to how much air it can pull. If it can pull enough air it should be fine.

 

I'm thinking above 1800 cfm is the magic number...go get a shroud from an old pontiac and then trim to fit...

 

I have an e-fan, universal Schucks special, no shroud, works fine, set up as pull, rigged to the A/C switch cools her down no prob.

 

I got a Black magic m150 and as stated earlier its smaller than the rad, works great.
