Drill more holes for attachment points and solder them all well .

I took mine to a radiator shop. They will professionally do the job that will last! I paid them $40 and am very happy with the job. I tried the soldering myself but thought if it doesn't work it would cost alot more if the shroud came off! I do most of the work on my Healey but think this is money well spent! Cheers!

That's probably what I'll do also since I have to take the radiator out to replace the fan blade. I think mine had come loose previously and I reattached it with J-B Weld, which worked well until last week when I fell off while on the road. Luckily the only damage it did was to break a small pc. off of one of the fan blades.
