I think this is a very bad idea.  You turn an exhaust leak into

carbon

monoxide coming into the cabin.

No different than any other air cooled aircraft engine heater

system

Hans. They all work off the exhaust. And all air-cooled VW's for

that matter.

I know plumbing issues are paramount to reliability and ,therefore,

airplane with an unconcious pilot is a fatality. One of the
advantages to a liquid cooled engine should be a comfotrable cabin.

I'd be darn sure I had a strong heater core that I could weld AN fittings
too.
