[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4199625, member: 5412"] I'm going back to the mid 70's on recollection but your correct. Block heaters were new for me at the time. If I remember right, got mine from JC Whitney. The instructions said to remove the thermostat so the heat could circulate. The heater worked as soon as one got into the vehicle, and the engine did run cooler. No need to warm up the engine. But, how many of us run our heaters at max heat? Nothing digital at that time. It was just a cable that opened and closed a butterfly valve in front of the heater core. Summertime, the thermostat went back in. Only made two winters up there, before coming back home to Ponca.
