Nice set up also. How much fabrication did you have to do to get teh shroud to bolt on and fit?
The condenser is actually not that much bigger than the original but is much more efficient. I fabricated the shroud by first building a mockup out of cardboard. Then I laid it out flat onto some 18-gauge body metal, cut and bent to shape, and tack welded it up. I welded tabs to the shroud that capture the lower mounting holes of the original shroud and bumper bolts at the top. The shroud is rubber mounted to the condenser. I used nutserts in the shround for bolting on the fan. Here's a shot that better shows the mounting tabs.
