about 4 zip ties on each side is the best way ive found...... as long as you use good ones it dont wiggle or mess up cores

I use 1x1/8 strap mounted to the core support and bolt fans to that.

I take some old fuel line and put around the edge of the shroud so it does not hurt the radiator and then use bungee cords. Quick, easy, and works great.

I have used plumbers strap. That is also what holds my radiator in also.

Rubber bungee straps, zip ties, or wire have all been used by me with good success.
