I've seen the adhesive-backed heaters for sale by Howe Racing and even in Jeg's latest catalog. I'm sure if Muscle Motor Sports has any, they'll be less expensive. Jim Webb - 527 A/PP --Original Mess

It's been done and is a workable idea if the electric heater isn't available. The Model T Ford (1909-1927) ran the engine and tranny in the same oil. This made them quite hard to hand crank when the

At Bonneville, you could probably even use a small thermosiphon solar panel to heat the oil or water! There are two types of heaters that are used on dry sump oil tanks, a pad type and a cartridge t
