I'm still plotting a heat scheme. I really want to have heat/defrosters in my 3.6 conversion. I've entertained the idea of a gas heater, which would probably work fine. I've also considered trying to get something to work off of the oil cooler. Now, I was just looking at the Elephant racing finned oil lines and thought hey, maybe I could route finned oil lines through the old heater passages (solves oil line routing to front cooler) and still fan force air through the passages and derive heat from the finned lines. I would have to come up with a way to port the lines into the ducts and out while still keeping the ducts semi-sealed. This doesn't seem insurmountable.
For all you thermodynamists out there, would this work for heat?? |

I think it would be easier/cheaper for you to do a oil/air heat exchanger. You will have to run a front mounted cooler anyway (no oil cooler on the engine).
Let me speak with a vendor today that is working on a heating system for 911's based on the front mounted oil cooler. B |
