Each unit has a C7 cat as well as a C18 cat. Block and pan heaters on both plus a heater blanket on a 50 gallon hydraulic oil reservoir

The problem with "racing" parts is that generally they are designed to maximize performance over long life. They are also prepared to do major repairs and replacements after every race.

I think the best Idea so far is a hydraulic pump....

Should outlast the engine pumping at almost zero pressure.
