Rich,
I fabricated a simple heater box using an early Mustang heater core.
They're small, well built, and available through most Mustang parts
sources for about $25.  They also carry molded foam rubber end cushions
that solved the problem of how to mount the core in the housing. =20

For the fan, I used a 6" muffin fan and a PWM motor controller, both
from MPJA.com.  It has three outlets, defrost, front passenger heat, and
rear passenger heat.  The amount of heat is controlled by either the fan
speed or the inline flow control valve, available from NAPA.=20

Wondering what others are doing for cockpit heat.  Like to find
something "quick and dirty" so the plane is not down until summer when I
won't need it :-).  As it will likely be a water source would like to
know what is being used as a control.  Have checked the archives and
found nothing on cockpit heat.

thanks,
Rich
