This should have probably gone out to the SE list with temps dropping down
like they have.
I was hoping to get out and try this but I was kind enough to pass along the
cold I had last week to Nora so I'm watching The Boy today.

You have me beat on the budget aspect of it, but I prefer the Reiff preheat
system I had on the RV-8. I plan to do the same on the RV-7. Up-front cost
and hassle are a little greater, but after that it's just a drop cord
through the oil door. I left it plugged in all the time when the average
temps were in the 40s or less. Blanket over the cowl and cowl plugs too.

Bill,
I will stuff the duct up between the exhaust pipes.
I had been propping the heater up on that small stepladder, which did a good
job to heat the engine, not as good as what Larry has but it worked. My
thinking is this will get more hot air into the cowling.

That looks simple enough. How are you going to attach it to the engine?

Bret,
I took the other end and stuffed it in the cowling between the exhaust
pipes.
Saturday afternoon when I first turned it on, my EMS showed the oil temp was
30 degrees F. 35 minutes later, it was up to 44.
That was done with the cowl plugs in place and an old flannel bed sheet over
the cowling.
