I used a puller fan from a Vauxhall Astra (the same as a Pontiac Le Man I believe) an the fan shroud is virtually identical in size the the Volvo rad. Looks cool and was a breeze to mount. Perhaps the shroud from one of these can be fitted to your fan.

You don't say what your fan shroud is made of but it's pobably ally or plastic. In either case, fabricate an ally plate to cover the gap and rivet it to the shroud. Make sre the rivets don't foul the fan blades. A bit of silicon sealant could be used to smooth the join.

Regards,

Big Rich
