    That 1242253 interchanges I believe. That's a riv 455 shroud. It measures about the same

    About 14" from drivers side of the radiator box to center of fan opening.

    Thanks to everyone for rummaging around and taking time to reply.

    I've got a shroud, and a fan is on its way.

    I'll soon be driving the dual quad 430 1973 century
