whats the score with the water heater?? i'm thinking about fitting one to my di to pre heat the vegetable oil fuel system.. i know some land rovers and what not are fitted with them.. not to sure about the controller though... what did your one come out of? has it got fuel and water pump built in to it?

p.s smart van!! it only needs a v8 in to go with the side pipes!
