heat booster

[chrisby]

I want to improve my heating,Bluebird Customs do a booster that fits inline on the existing system. Does anyone have any experience of this , good or bad.

supposed to be good but damned expensive.....have you thought of acquiring the late bay style of blower usually under 20 notes and decent power.....

The problem with the late bay blower would be where to fit it due to its awkward shape :? ,and yeh I thought that the Bluebird one was expensive.

A cheaper alternative to the Bluebird blower would be a bildge blower from a boat chandlers - They're about twenty - odd notes

I read on another forum that someone fitted one of those and the heat melted part of it,not sure if its one of those myths that go around, anyone throw any light on this.

If there any clever ytypes, how about using the workings of a 12v travel hair dryer? permanently set on 'low' and fitted into the blower system.wire it to a switch on the dash?

It was tried by 'Jimbo the Westy man' on the JK forums. All that was lost when they changed to the new style forum. I think he re-designed or remade the casing using the original mechanism, and it worked then. Electric blowers are the one thing I'd consider adding to my bays heating.
