F700 cold starting

I have a 1987 F700 with a 6.6 diesel. I have determined that the two freeze plug block heaters are not working any longer. Instead of replacing those, I was thinking of installing a tank heater. Has anyone done this, if so what brand heater do you suggest and where do you suggest installing it? I have one on my backhoe and it works great.
