I have a 74 Duster, V8 with Factory AC. I have the original 26" radiator, and I recently found a nice original fan shroud. The hole in the shroud is 21 and 1/2" across. Now, What do I need for a fan? What would have been on it originally? I want to use a clutch fan.

I bought it disassembled so I never took it apart originally.

I have a 20" clutch fan for $25 + ship. It was 1/2 too big for my 20" opening.
 
Do you have a depth measurement? Mounting flange to center of fan blades and total thickness? What is it from originally?

I'll have to get that for ya tomorrow when I go to my storage
 
Here ya go. It is 3 1/4 tall and is 20" from blade end to blade end.

You need a little allowance for the shroud center not perfectly aligning w/ the water pump centerline, but 20" "should work".
 
It was a 1/2 too big for my 70 v8 shroud and my opening is 20" so I found a 19" which gives me 1/2 clearance on each side now.
 
I looked it up in the 73 FSM and it shows an 18-1/2" x 7 blade x 2-1/2" deep if I'm reading it right. Is yours for sale?
