Hawks Radiator Shroud

For those interested. This radiator shroud from Hawks is a bit expensive for what it is but unless you run a metal fabrication shop and can make your own it’s worth it. Fits nicely over 3 core set ups. $159 + shipping/tax…looks great!

Re: Hawks Radiator Shroud

I too bought this and it indeed is well suited for wide radiators. Mine is a little loose with LS Summit radiator but it works fine. I found the bolt holes to be off though and had trouble getting all 4 lined up with the car. I ended up using a small rubber grommet under each bolt to protect the surface of the shroud.

Re: Hawks Radiator Shroud

Do you know if it would work with LS1/LT1 fans, or would it need some trimming?

Its a pretty wide shroud cover. I can't see it not fitting over any radiator honestly. I used a thin foam strip under the lip to take up some of the space.

Re: Hawks Radiator Shroud

I used it with the stock radiator and had to drill my own holes to make it work. Not the best picture, but you can see what I did.
