Bob:
I think it is going to be a big problem bleeding the system of air.
Normally the radiator cap is the highest point in the system and the air
goes to the top and out the cap. You would have to come up with some sort
of bleeding valve on the heater. I think it would be easier to duct the air
into the cabin and mount the heater below the top of the engine.

I own a trawler with 120 Lehman power (single). I am thinking about
installing a heater flush mount on the floor that will use the FW water from
the engine cooling system. The radiator style heater (Red Dot) will be
slightly higher then the motor. Will this pose any problems with the
cooling system?
Thanks
