Restoring a 1970 challenger with a 340 and a/c, got a 26" radiator from yearone and a fan shroud for a 26" radiator, also bought brackets but turns out they are for 22" radiators only. So i can't figure out how to bolt the shroud and radiator together, can't find any 26" fan shroud mounting brackets (don't think they exist) and the mounting holes on the shroud don't line up with the radiator. The car was in pieces when i bought it and it didn't have a radiator in it, so i have no reference. if anyone has a picture of a 26" radiator fan shroud mounted it would be very helpful, thanks.

There's 2 different 26" fan/shroud types...I think up to 70 & 71 -on... you may have an incorrect match

Read the fine print and found out yearone 26" radiators do not accept factory fan shrouds (does not have mounts built into radiator like factory ones) so just wondering what other people may have done for a shroud with an aftermarket factory type radiator.
