I think we missed the point of this conversation...lol
 The 76E (early model) fans Shroud was $530. the 76L (late model) was $155.
or vise versa whats the (Physical) differance (had to throw that in there)
in these fan shrouds will they both work?..or are they manufactured
different?

Hi Jamie, according to the parts manual.......
Early design part#368681(plastic) "no angular tabs for shroud mounting"
Late design part#379937(14028585)  "With angular tabs for shroud mounting"
Late design continued through to 1980 excepting sp h/per models, which would
be L82 i presume.

cheers
Jim
