[QUOTE="Dave1234, post: 129681, member: 23099"] Yes, there is a thick sheet metal piece that sits at a slant covering the opening above the fan shroud to assure that all the air must go through the Hyd oil cooler and/or the radiator. Should be pretty easy to fabricate. (FYI, Mine was a little tight to get in and out with the radiator hoses in place, but doable). And, if it were me, like you I would also plan on sheet metal patches to more or less duplicate the shroud where damaged. There are still some 4g32 engines in wrecking yards. I'd try to get the timing covers via that route. Some 4g32s had a timing chain, others a belt. The chain version won't have similar covers. And some had dual cams. They may not work either, not sure. Don't know about the silent shafts version. Look for ~ 77-80 Dodge Colt or similar car. It will probably have to be a rear wheel drive version. [/QUOTE]
