from a 56, but if you're putting the aftermarket plastic shroud in with a small block, a picture might help ... needs to be so the fan is about half inside

the bolts are longer ones in place of the rad mounting bolts - double nutted so one nut holds the rad, one holds the shroud - shroud can be drilled where ever you want

would a fan with more baldes actually be a good investment as well? Not so much for overheating issue but just more air flow. I am thinking of buying one alnog with clutch just not sure if it is worth it.

no idea Giant, it's a friends truck and it's whatever pump was right so all the pulleys lined up on the random used 350 he found for the truck
