So price?..comparable to todays repro price I've seen when shaven.The unshaven is the more sought after and higher price.
Here are photos of an original unshaven #165 on a 1970 Chevelle 3 row radiator.Last 2 pics show the bottom..
See where it actually touches the radiator core on the drivers side,as well as on the bottom lip.That's what's been shaved off of yours to fit a 4 row.
1970 Chevelle big block 2 & 3 row,and 1969 Chevelle big block 2 & 3 row,all used this unshaven #165 shroud .
Thanks. Those picture clearly show the difference.
