  This is a full size, but you must check the dimensions when you print it out. If they don't match the ruler measurment, you will have to resize it so that they do.

This is necessary because the printing program may resize the drawing to accommodate your printer.

  When you right click on the image, you can then click on 'Open image in new tab'. Once you do that, hold down the Ctrl key on your keyboard and scroll your mouse wheel either up or down to resize the image. Once you do that, you can print it at that new size. Do this until you get the right size printed image.

  Most, if not all, were mounted by a dealer rather than as an accessory at assembly. Several manufacturers provided the heaters which varied in the location of the tubes. The main concern is the access to the hose connections on the engine side of the firewall as they can easily come too close to the engine head. We carefully measure the location of the tubes on the engine, them drill small pilot holes in the firewall to determine position before making holes for the the tubes and the mounting bolts. If there is no cutoff valve on the heater hose connection on the engine head, be sure to obtain one to cutoff the circulation when the heat is not needed. C&G has a wide variety of heater parts at 800/266-0470.
