OK, I need some help. I have a Kats tank-type block heater but am not sure where it should be plumbed into the block of my 1650D. The kit came with a pastic "T" with various instructions envolving connection at the lower radiator hose, the waterpump/thermostat area and up high on the block itself. My options on the 1650 appear to be the block drain on the right side about 2/3 down on the block, the lower rad. elbow (near the existing stock heater) and the port on the upper front of the block which I believe to be the temp sending unit. Can someone help me as to the proper way to install this type of heater. Thanks.

My 2-70 is plumbed like butcher's 1650. It has worked fine for fifteen years. This setup heats the fastest but the water level must be higher than the thermostat or the heater will fail.

Others my not agree with this but, I hooked mine up with the output hose plumbed to the block drain.The return line is teed into the temp sending unit. This way the hot antifreeze dosnt cause the thermastat to open thus heating the entire rad. This way it heats only the block. In 2 hours I have 70 degrees at the head.

I have a 1500watt circulating type heater on my 1650D Cockshutt. I have it plumbed as follows:
The heater must remain below the level of the block drain hole. I have the top discharge from the heater plumbed to the return line coming from the cooler to the port directly below the thermostat on the RHS. I then made a "Tee" and came off the drain plug port to the bottom of the heater. Back in the days before I lost most of my compression the tractor would easily start all winter long. At -40 with the sides and rad covered the heater would warm the block in about 3 hours.
