LS U5030C
Has anyone plumbed a temro 8000 tank/circulation engine heater? If so how? My rad hose heater didn't last so I'm looking for other options. The temro looks like a high quality heater but room may be limiting!

No, but mine starts up in the coldest weather without any problems.

Unless you are going to be operating below 0 C you wont need any engine block heater. I started my P 7010 at 37F without even using the glow plugs and it started right up. We dont get temps here much below 28F so no block heaters are required.
Where are you located?

Alberta, decided to reinstall another rad hose heater, just less plumbing, gets to -33c here but don't usually need to run it when it's that cold, just wait for a chinook to blow in!
