Well, here is is, November, and I just got my car and new engine back from the shop. Now for my problem. Even though it is Chicago, the snow does not usually start flying for another month or so, and I would like to have my 914 out and about. The Triad headers obviously do not allow for any heat. I was wondering if anyone has tried/heard of/seen an electrical passanger heat system that can help. I am not looking for desert type heat or anything, just something to take the edge off.

QUOTE(Hawktel @ Nov 3 2003, 01:43 PM) What if you put a better alternator in? good luck finding very much more output with an alternator that fits in the stock location. if you fab some bracketry and use the AC compressor location, the sky's the limit. actually, this may be one of the few good reasons to consider 911-style cooling shrouds; late-model 911's have enough electrical-generating capacity for an ocean liner (which a late-model 911 resembles in many respects :-) ...) BTW - i checked the current rating on my Homedics heated seat insert - 1,6A. |
