NOS Bottle heater
NOS Bottle heater I have a NOS bottle heater. I have heard that they don't work very well and that I should just use a torch. Does any one have one, If so how good is it?
Mine worked fine....until one of the wires going into the heater ripped out (my fault). My HSW heater is a lot better but the NOS heater got the job done.
Don't use a torch...ever.

I'm running a Dynotune Heater Element wired straight to a switch, and I keep an eye on the pressure with the digital gauge. I haven't had any issues with it at all, and it will typically heat up pretty quick. Granted I'm in FL so I don't have to deal with super cold temperatures either

The NOS heater will work fine. Depending on which unit you have it may have a thermostat. Im not a fan of the thermostat. I would upgrade it to a better pressusre switch such as this.

i love the 860 bottle heater/bracket.
it's like wrapping a fat electric iron around your bottle.
here it is on my previous camaro. i still use it on my ss, but its hidden behind the driver's seat.
