Goodysnap Thanks this.

Yes the davcos have a thermostat in them. Yes I thought about that as well. Pictures are shown below. I have also thought about converting it over to a fuel return heater. That way if ever there was a leak it would be fuel into fuel not coolant into fuel.

Use the return fuel line to heat the fuel pretty simple
-
Agree simple and only one connection basically.
-
Using return fuel is easier but running in real cold areas I prefer using the coolant.
plus the newer engines don’t return enough fuel to warm jack ….. -
I don't have any heat on my 382 and run Michigan Ohio pa all winter no problems as of yet

davoc has diagrams showing the hookup for any engine doing internet search. pretty simple heater hose coming off oil cooler to davoc return to bottom of water pump or the return pipe coming off the bottom of the radiator.
