I found a heavy gauge baking pan (cookie sheet) which fits my '50 Merc radiator perfectly. Bought a 16in Spal puller S blade fan. Used a Malco HC-2 hole cutter tool. Pan cost $12, the hole cutter was $82 from Amazon and fan was $155. I've not heard of anyone using 18in fan but whatever. Oh yes I got some aluminum angle for $15 to fasten pan/shroud to the radiator/frame.

Checkout the hole cutter tool-it's cool and there are you-tubes demonstrating it's use.
