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.

Has anyone looked into using a peletier device/ thermoelectric device?
I was under the impression that they produce heat/cold with low amperage requirements. This electric requirement is lower than a hair dryer type electric heater. http://www.americool.com/aa.htm One example. I know that this has been tested and used in both Nasa and submarines with great success. It is also used in the Iraq war because it is low sound, this keeps it more stealth,,,all the while cooling the computers in the backs of the trucks, or on the backs of the soldiers. Couple of questions. What is the largest alternator that we can get for a 914? Can a stock alternator be rewound (enough room) to make a large output rich |
