I've seen this on a boat I looked at years ago but didn't get the details of the install.
I was curious if anyone installed/added a heater core to one of their main engines to add heat to the cockpit for cooler weather running. I was looking at a 28k BTU heater install.
In the cooler weather we usually just run a 1500w electric heater in the cockpit but thats ~5k BTU and doesn't well really underway.
I was looking at this https://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/70601/10002/-1
It looks like it will do the job but wondering how to "T" off the coolant as I doubt it would offer sufficent flow to take all the coolant through it and probably just need a small amount.
Thoughts?
