orig. purist one or blocked off on shroud (no exit tubes)?


waltermitty - June 17th, 2015 at 02:00 PM

not purist but I want a non modified non exit tube OG shroud to fit TP tinware will have an external cooler but I believe the 181 has dog house as well so that would be optimum >
What you got?

So is yours a stale air modified?

And do you have a non stale air doghouse shroud available?

Thanks Mitchell

[size=4]I have a scat 36 hp aftermarket with dog house. Factory 36s don't have a doghouse.
Although the scat shroud is reasonable they don't cool as well as a factory dog house but all factory dog house shrouds have stale air outlets and i want the look without them.
I have also read that factory shrouds are designed differently for the stale air out lets and removing them created turbulence in the shroud and results in less cooling especially around cylinder 3.
So the best option for cooling with a dog house and no stale air is a thing shroud and or a Mexican fuel injection shroud.
Also a factory shroud will allow me to install the thermostat flaps locked open which will better direct the cooling air to where its most needed.

So this is a 36hp fan shroud on a stale air 40hp engine, converted to 12volt???

It might be , no dog house for oil cooler i need dog house.
The fan on a 36 Hp shroud is narrower and blows less than a 40 HP shroud.
I want non stale air dog house factory shroud, rare but nice.
I am back in Indonesia in a few months and have been putting some feelers out there.
I am hopefull that with the best combination of factory tin etc well installed i can get the best possible cooling without going to external coolers. simple clean smart.

a 40 hp fan will fit 36 shroud and whine less whatever u do...
details r interesting value

Just to clarify.
The 36hp and 40hp stale air fan shrouds are the same size.
The 36hp fan is narrower see pic

It's the mounting of the generator that is different see pic below of 6volt 36hp fan shroud.

Front thing shroud no stale air ducts.
Back with dog house for oil tower.

I know its unlikely that i will find one here but stranger things have happened I have not asked for stuff before and seen others ask and get .

My best chance will be in Bali in November i have several possibilities.

Mitch

The Aussie 76 bug had this shroud with the 1/2in outlet and doghouse but they had the fresh air for the heaters, you could block them

the 1200 non fresh air had this but without the doghouse

you will have to look OS to find one I think
