'68 318 to carbed Magnum 5.2: Check my checklist

Well, the M-body lower radiator hose won't work. I forgot that Mopar changed them to 1-1/2" from 1-3/4" at the lower outlet, which throws that idea out the window. Even if it did work, the shroud just doesn't fit right. Confirmed it when I pulled the lower hose this evening.

Looks like I'll have to go for the P2998326 shroud and simply use an 18" fan instead of the 20". Damn myself for selling off the original 7-blade. Might just grab the first nice-looking 18" that I can find in the junkyard that fits, and call it a day. Our junkyards stink though - prices sometimes rival that of eBay + shipping.
