Looking through Bob Schallers "More BS about TR's" for about the hundreth time I came across his recommendation (on page 23) to replace the TR3 heater with one from a Spitfire MkI, 2 or 3. To quote Mr. Schaller the advantages are
"It is quite thin, has a blower instead of a fan [I am not sure what that means exactly] and has dual flat REPAIRABLE [my emphasis] cores with vents pointing in a good direction".
It also fits is supposed to fit precisely in the cavity behind the dash panel flush with the bottom of the dash.
I am in North Carolina so it is not that crucial an issue for me but I thought it would be interesting to try it for the few winter months we have here with my hardtop and noisemaker sidescreens. I am thinking it might be a challenge to see if I can drive the car all year round.
Has anyone actually done this? I would not think it would be very easy to get a MK1-3 heater but if I could it sounds like a worthwhile experiment.
Any experiences with Spitfire or other 'upgrade' heaters in TR3's or 4's out there?
Thanks very much,
Jim Lee
