Hi there,
I am needing a new radiator and both fans, but dont feel like paying 190 bucks for both of them. I found some other "High Performance" radiator fans but hey come in a few different sizes.

Mine being destroyed and all i cant measure the diamete of the blades. Does anyone know what size will work in the size to replace the stock ones? also is the shroud thing necessary or not? Anything i should know before i go off and do this?

Thanks,
Nick

The "shroud thing" is basically there to keep you from sticking your fingers in the fans, however, it also serves as a "funnel" to keep as much of the hot engine air from being recirculated and to bring in as much cool air, from the outside, as possible, so, I would say it's "necessary."

Here's info on the fans:
