Message	Apparently previous owner has told me the engine was bored out to 3.3L how do i check if this is true without pulling the heads off? I had a HOWE radiator... it did not have the fan shroud when i got it and i noticed a considerable amount of heat in the engine bay... I imagine it was due to the air wasn't really being directed properly and the radiator was pulling more heat from the motor and distributing it on the whole engine bay.... So i found my old fan shroud in the shed and installed it but I had to modify the shroud by cutting a chunk out of it on the top near the drivers side so as to avoid the fan from hitting the shroud. I was wondering if you guys had issues with fan clearance with the HOWE radiator + stock shroud?
