I'd be curious to know your trick to removing the shroud without first removing the fan.

Though I don't find it at all difficult to remove the nuts from the fan mounting studs with a stubby Craftsman box wrench made much thinner than its longer brothers, it would be a straighter shot without the shroud in the way. Not talking intercooled turbo. And for some stupid reason I always grab the Phillips first to dismount the shroud, then have to put one screw back in until I get the fan off. Then I bend the upper rad hose, to threaten the old Blackstone plastic, in order to withdraw the shroud.
