I am putting an electric fan in my truck (the DIY kind). It is going to work well (I'm sure)... but I'm looking at it and there is about an inch gap between the shroud and the outer part of the electric fan.

I was thinking of some type of foam, but don't know what....

Any of you have something that is common that I might just be overlooking to fill in that gap. I could glue something to the fan outer edge to hold it there....

Thanks,
Ryan

 

i have the same massive gap . . id like to move the engine forwards half a foot to make the spark plugs easier lol

 

Good idea. I hadn't acutally thought about that gap yet... I was thinking of a gap I have between my shroud and the OD of the fan... It's about an inch.

Per the extra room between my engine, and the fan, I guess I'll have to run some sort of ram air?

But I'm still trying to find a black substance that can fill in about 1 - 1 1/2 gap between the fan and shroud.

 

Black foam pipe insulation - available in all kinds of different sizes and with some 3-m weatherstrip glue, mounts perfectly
