My question is about whether the hvac will blow warm air immediately after I start it instead of a mile down the road if I use the block heater but I also never thought about it having a thermostat. And it’s a NBS if that matters. I see that one warms and circulates the coolant so I’m guessing it would.
Mine did. On my 78 c10 I had some heat right away and the hood would be melted off in places. The windshield would be partially defrosted down low even. Standing outside the truck you could hear the little heater chug like a perc coffee pot.

My Yukon was originally ordered with a block heater (sold in OR). But I'll never need it (I'm in SC). How much work is it to remove it? Are they worth anything used?

I didn't do anything to my Denali....but I did think about buying a new Mid engine SUV........at the Naples Cars on fifth

Most had prancing ponys but there were at least 10 of these....View attachment 270103

Seen a few C8's driving around here.
Also a local guy has a Lamborghini, they really look better in person.
(stradman is also local, seen him in slc a few times with his)

2d images don't capture how wide the side intake ports are.

10 years from now, the C8 will be in my price range. :D
IMO, they look amazing with larger wheels and lowered to remove that ugly wheel gap.

what a stark contrast to California, everyone is wearing mask's here then again you are required to if you are within 6ft of anyone outside your home. :boxed:

You could get $25 on eBay for it. You’ll also need to replace the brass threaded freeze plug and lost coolant. It would be absolutely foolish to remove it. Not that hard to install. I did mine in my driveway. While I was there I drained, flushed, and replaced the coolant.

here it's strongly suggested, but they won't try and force people due to the constitution and stuff. :D

I heard some places were trying to force you to wear one inside of your home as well.. :rolleyes:

Ya they "suggested" that people wear a mask inside if you go out to grocery shop, etc
it's rather funny that "all of a sudden" the numbers drop like rocks, all we had was a Christmas/new years spike, doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out.

I was at the bank the other day, funny to watch a guy enter the building with out a mask.
Sure people gave him a "look" but the staff left him alone.

He did of course notice he was the only one and grabbed one of the complementary masks. :jester:
