I've been thinking about putting a flame intake heater on my girlfriends 6.5 suburban
like this one Isuzu I-Mark diesel. scroll down 7 or 8 posts There around 20 bucks on ebay or amazon or I found these diesel powered coolant heaters, but they cost the same a new ip and injectors Espar - Hydronic MII Coolant Heater - Eberspächer. international makes a cheaper version that was $850 when I checked

the guy on the izuzu forum said that fire warmer did not work very good on the 4 cylinder.
so i doubt it will work at all on a V8.


and those diesel powered coolant heaters are very expensive to buy, and run.
