How to warm up a Canadian built engine...
Permalink  

 

Greetings Poncho Folk's :

I haven't been on here for a while now, so I guess I better catch up a bit here !

Saw this Post today on F.B., and many likely saw the same thing there as well.

Just too good to not repost here...

This is how we warm up our Canadian Hot Rod engines here in Canada, especially when it is minus 20 Celsius every morning, or lower than that sometimes !!!

If this is a Chrysler Hemi, then I guess that's why the Drag Racing community used to refer to them as "Stoves". HaHaHa !

Haha, do you know how many watts that block heater would be? Looks pretty efficient!

That sure would be something for mancave shop. I would have spent the extra time and made the valve covers Hemi, then you could have your own crackle fest...

Too cool! I mean Hot! Would have thunk more HP with that air intake? Problem with the baffles maybe?   

Enter the power in btu per hour below to get the value converted to horsepower.

Btu Per Hour Value:
 SWAP UNITS
 
Results in Horsepower:
Mechanical Horsepower
80,000 Btu/h = 31.441175 hp(I)
Electric Horsepower
80,000 Btu/h = 31.428525 hp(E)
