Reply to "Heaters yes/no"

I mentioned this on another thread. If you take the time to seal you cabin the Vintage Mod is cheap and easy to do. Bypass the frame and put ducts from the heater boxes directly to the tubes under the frame. It increase heat and air glow significantly. I also fitted the OEM flaps for faster warm-ups. If you have an external oil cooler you can add a gateway that blocks flow to the cooler in temps lower than 80c. On my 1915cc it still never gets warm enough to heat the cabin if the ambient temp is below 35f. As far as gas heaters, I had a type 2 bus I restored many years ago and because l camped in the NW I added a BA 6 heater. That is the hottest heater ever made. With the timer you could set it to fire up 15 minutes before you needed to use the bus and it was tropical in there. I have seen some fantastic gas heater installs on this site over the years. I may still go that way at some point.
