[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 30565, member: 307"] Heat is heat and it all helps. Block heaters are the best because they heat internally and the coolant circulates around the engine to spreading the heat out. Heat underneath help greatly too, but takes longer. The onan on our welder used to get a forced air contruction heater up against the flywheel fan forcing warm air through the cooling shroud and over the jugs, those fins pick up heat as fast as thgey disapate it. Even a heat lamp and a tarp. Also synthetic 0-30 or 0-40 oil. Remove any drag on the engine if possible. Wow a C5 running with just a dipstick heater at -28, must of had a Deutz in that one!
