Anyone know of a way to add electric heat and defrost? I have no heat exchangers and instead of adding them Id like to come up with a way to add some heat with electric heaters. The car will not be driven when it is very cold out.

It works very well when the oil gets over 185 degrees, it would work better
if a larger heater core were installed. I was limited on space where I place it. I used the fresh air blower resistor pack on the original heater blower motor to
give me 3 speeds. If you look at the design you will see I'm treating the oil as
water with the design thats why I used a separate oil pump to control the oil flow.
In order to get the heat back in the oil I return the oil to the heads, just like
they due in airplane engines, this also cools the heads.
