Subject: RE: Slick setup for early 4020 block heater


just a tish NE of central ND
That engine block heater on a 4320 block.(my guess)
Ive never seen one spliced into the lower radiator hose and I dont think that laying horizontally is the correct instalation. ..... There is a check ball in some of those heaters on the upper outlet so they only work right in upright position,
I also have never seen a radiator hose port splice device like the one in the radiator hose.I do suppose that the unit could work though, Most run a 3/4 inch hose around to the other side and place the heater below a entry port into the head on the right side.Those heaters put out more heat and draw higher amperage than the soft plug heaters do.mine si at least 1500 watts. I use both in ours as it sits outside and when it gets below zero the wind will take out as much heat from the block as the soft plug heater can make.So I have the option to use both when it is real cold and windy.
