I assume your heater assy is mounted inside the cabin behind the rear seat?? Does the fan inlet get inside or fresh air? How? Interesting about the oil system flow. We are not consistant with this flow on the list. Counting me, just on todays disclosures, we are evenly divided 2 and 2 for where in the system to place the filter and cooler.

The centrifugal blower came from Lincoln Surplus for about $6.95. The housing I made by carving urethane foam mold and laying up fiberglass. The core came from NAPA. I looked through their parts catalog until I found a core that is about 6 x 7" (I think from an old Ford van). From the collector side housing, two duct carry the heat to blow forward from under the rear seats. It puts out a lot of heat. From your other posting : I think the oil filter is supposed to be the last thing before the engine. Best they are placed before the cooler. Keeps sludge from building up in the cooler over the long haul.
