Re: Heater. Economy or duluxe?

I've had both, but hands down the fresh air heater is the one for me. I don't even need the fan when the truck is in motion...and the defrost works well. I put a shut off vavle on the water pump too for summer. That way when it's shut off my heater works as a vent.

I am thinking of doing something similar to the shutoff valve, but was thinking a solenoid valve for a bypass valve for coolant and it into my stock levers. I'm having a hard time ditching all the stock stuff for updated stuff, so I'm at trying to keep the look of old/stock.

I Swapped to a 90 tilt sgift column and brake booster and still kinda want the hand lever parking brake. I don't know if it make it.

Do you have a picture of your shut off valve?
