When I got my 914 it had no heating system. Im thinking of rigging somthing. Where dose the heater fan draw air from? Surely not from the engine bay. Shouldnt it draw from the cab?

Nothing beats a stock (well, SSI) heat exchanger system for cabin heat.

Once the engine is up to temperature, I get PLENTY of heat from the system. Too much in lower gear sustained cruising, in fact... With the fan, well, that'd be a LOT of heat!
