If you give me the Ford engineering numbers off the old one I'll cross them over to the Ford part number. Outside of that I'd check with DC. If I remember correctly they list the dimensions on the fan shrouds.

If you have AC and or do any towing then ,I'd replace it.

But most guys don't replace them and find there engine runs about the same temp with out it.

If you have done the required cleaning an flushing and have changed coolant 3-5 yrs. Doing this type of maintenance then you should not have any heating issues.

I cut mind in haft to make replacing water pump much easier with four home made aluminum L brackets attached on each side haft with pop rivet where the hafts come back together.
So the lower haft will just stay in place after removing upper haft.

Then when it's installed on the radiator the L brackets come together and touch. I then ran two sheet metal screws to pull it together in place so it won't vibrate.

Kind of like what was done by GM vehicles yrs ago

Maybe you can see the L bracket with the two screws

Thanks for the replies gentlemen.



The shroud is at my shop, which is not at my home. I will post the numbers first thing in the morning.

I thought about trying to fix it, but it just crumbles when I mess with it more. It is like dried out paper mache'.

The ID engineering number is molded into the shroud at the upper left (drivers side) corner.

Sorry for the delay gentleman, the local CO-OP ran new line down the highway and internet was out for a while.

There is NO parts number anywhere on the shroud. Only thing is the "Caution Fan" sticker on top.

Check out DC's D3TZ8146B. It's $120.00 in my Feb 2013 catalog.

Hit the junk yard and find a ford contour dual fan setup.
Here's just one or a dozen install threads:
Ford Contour Fans Install - yet another thread - Rennlist Discussion Forums

It's cheap, easy, and crazy powerful.
Plus it's electric and frees up HP.
People use them in everything, mustangs, hotrods, jeeps, etc.

Which of the TWO different F100 302 shrouds do you have?

Look at the upper left (drivers side) corner for the ID engineering number, post what it is.

Back in the days of Bumps and Dents I never saw one without an engineering number. Check out the DC one I mentioned. DC does show dimensions so you can make sure.
