Is there such thing as a 12V heater that could be stealthy installed? Or perhaps a small coolant based core that could be stealthly mounted?
Looking at a shaved engine bay with deleted heater core. I don't want any coolant lines running through the fire wall (gotta be smooth), but would like to have some heat for cold mornings/nights. Any ideas? Any examples?
I've looked at vintageair briefly, but wondered if there was any home brewed setups out there. I don't care about A/C, just looking for some heat.

Summit carries small ones that work off your coolant their pretty cheap too

Any street rod mag will have adds in the back for small add on heaters. Some work off coolant and some off electricity. Most are around $80 bucks that I've seen.

No heater core?.... I have no heater and my ride is toasty. What yah do is remove all that heat sheild shit from your fire wall and heat shield shit from your cat and muffler and before you know it your rocking a 35 degree day with your windows down! One other tip remove the boot around the shifter. Do not drive on a hot summer day!

just a idea
for a cheap fix
they makep portable small like 8" electric box heaters and throw that in with a power inverter...it might not be pretty
and a lil ghetto but you could take it out or hide it if needed

nothing... just looking for a cleaner way to do it than hacking up a stock heater box. Figured there was some slimline units around or something pre-made that would save the fabwork of fitting a core into an air box.

try the mojave, it's about the size of box of pop tarts... and the heat exchange is all built into it... line to intake, line to water pump and it's done... 12 volts, you have floor and defrost... and it puts out decent heat.
they're only like 200 bones from summit... and really small and easy to hide somewhere up there....
