I'm looking to buy a gasoline heater for my nine-one-four.
i live in colorado and drive my car year round. Does anyone know where to get one? The newer the better. |

charging those gel cells would be ... unhandy. Are you sure that you couldn't hook two batteries parallel and then wire them seperately to the heater in sequence?
Then you'd have twice as many cranking amps for those cold colorado evenings coming home from school... And the other thing is... Where should i mount it? It would be easy enough to relocate the brain box (which i want to do anyway) and put it there and then run it to the cab through the heater boxes? Or should i run it to the heater fan on the other side? Or mount it on the other side and set up a Y and run the heater to the cab under the fan and after the fan- that way the fan is picking up 180deg air instead of whatever hellacious temp the mil-spec heater pumps out like a nazi anti aircraft gun. |
