My radiator fan shroud is hitting the hood at the hood brace on my lemans. I am looking to lower the radiator fan shroud top to create enough clearance. By looking the only solution I see is to cut the fan shroud and remove two small pieces and plastic weld together. Here are the facts of my problem. I could post a more pictures but it does not show the issue well and the description may be better. Picture is of place I would cut and reweld and also where it is rubbing.

Factory fan shroud with original radiator tanks with a higher capacity core, all factory mounting
Clearance from bottom of shroud to fan is 1/2"
Clearance from top of fan shroud to fan is 2 1/2"
Fan shroud bolts to top of radiator support and more or less sets the height of the round part of the shroud.
I did contact Ames and the tech department did an outstanding job helping me confirm that I have the "correct" fan shroud with some pictures with measurements

Thanks for any solutions or different shroud that may help my problem.
