From one of the hot rod forums and also the opinion of one trusted GMC source:

"I read a very good article many years ago about fan/fan shroud technology and it was stated that for optimal efficiency the fan blades should be 50% in the shroud and 50% outside the shroud....this is when looking at the edge of the fan blades."

That is what one gets with the split fan shrouds. The blade is half in and half out of the shroud. Is that where it should be to cool our beasts properly?

Great job by all at the French Camp, CA rally that ended Monday, btw!
