Title: Fan shroud
Post by: Flangehead on October 06, 2016, 08:59:10 pm

Hello,
I have a 1979 C10 custom deluxe with a 250 L6. I have a lead on an 87 Gmc 2500 with a 350 for parts. I was wondering of the fan shroud will fit on my 79 because I'm planning on putting in a sbc. Also, my truck has no power brakes but they are front disk. What would I need off the other truck besides the booster to convert it over ?
Thanks,
Bill

the fan shroud should fit in there , thats easy to modify tho if it doesnt
The brakes : you will need the proportioning valve and the booster

The proportioning valve you have should be fine just going with a power booster.  The master cylinder is different and you'll have to adjust your brake light switch as it will be closer to the floor.

Thanks for the info guys. So get the whole booster AND master cylinder. I appreciate the help.
