Summary:A fan & shroud assembly for use in cooling a radiator of an internal combustion engine. The assembly has a resilient insert forming part of a fan shroud which functions to vary the clearance between the shroud and fan blade tips in response to the velocity of air flow induced by the fan. The shroud yields to increasing air velocity to obtain said clearance variation and accompanying improved efficiency.
