Default efan and shroud

Ive seen this comment before and have always meant to ask, why do some remove the shroud when you take the clutch fan off, am I wrong to think it would help the air flow.

Yes. You're just pushing air in from the front now, no reason to keep it.

exactially with out the fan shroud is just a big ol piece of plastic that gets in your way. if ya pull the clutch fan tho id also remove the air dam to the left of the radiator to increase your air flow. Done know how that id just pull the fan on a 318, 360 either but with my little set up it cools just fine.
