Heater Kit Contents:

1no. Heater (2 speed)
3no. Self-tapping fixing screws
1no. 1m length of heater hose & 6no. hose clips (enough hose for inlet & outlet)
1no. On/off tap
2no. 280mm lengths of ∅15mm copper pipe with On/off tap to be fitted half way
1no. Bulkhead plate & sponge gasket
1. Position the heater inside the car using the 3 holes that are pre-drilled/countersunk in the battery tray area. There are 3
holes in the plastic heater housing that will mate up with these. Fix the screws into the housing top using the self-tapping
screws provided, making sure that the water pipes are on the O/S (RH).
2. Feed the upper rubber heater hose through the pre-drilled holes in the bulkhead and connect it to the carburettor
manifold outlet at the rear of the engine.
3. The lower hose will be connected to the back face of the water pump via the ∅15mm copper pipe which has an on/off
tap fitted half way along the pipe. Use a short piece of hose to connect the copper pipe to the water pump outlet. The other
end connects to the lower heater hose.
4. This photo shows the heater fitted and ready to wire in. This heater has 2 speeds, so the user can choose the preferred
speed at the time of wiring. Alternatively, a twin pull switch could be sourced for the dash instead of the single push/pull
supplied by Suffolk Sportscars Ltd.
