I know its off the subject but my father in law was in alaska for his army tour during viet nam and he said to get cars started when it was - 60 deg they would fill a garbage can lid with brickets, light and put under car then when car was toasty light newspaper and hold on carb and crank engine, but i dont recomend trying. haha

What do you guys think of this. I'm planning on cutting a custom intake plate with two holes instead of one like Banks' Twin Ram and wiring in a second heat grid. That should essentially double your intake heater capabilities as well as a great flowing intake. Anybody else tried something like this? My buddy just got stranded at work because he cant park near any outlets.

I have a winter front on my Dodge and It makes a world of difference! I used to have trouble keeping the windsheild defrosted and it would ice up in bad contions real easy. The winter front keeps a steadier warmer temp, it actually mad it up to 180 degrees once today! It get a lot warmer in the cab too. Have to crack a window or I boil over! I'll see about getting a picture of my winter front on here..oh and I got it brand new on eaby 5 yrs ago for $15. On another note.. kerosene is not fuel?? Then what is it? I have a kerosene heater and if not mistaken... it's almost jet fuel. There was an article in Diesel Power Mag about a guy that ran straight trans fluid in I think an expedition..kindof a bio fuel deal or a waste oil burner.... Excuse the block heater that I also love to use with a Battery tender 800Ma waterproof charger that is perinantly mounted under hood with block heater plugged into 3 way 6 ft extension cord which is why my cord poking out the front is orange! The fog and driving lights were in the proccess of getting wired.
