These are used in circle track racing to pre warm the engine oil before qualifying. They are adhesive and would warm up the transmission fluid just as well stuck to the bottom of the pan. One could run the cord right up next to your block heater and plug them both in at the same time. Glad I’m in NC. It was 70 degrees today :)

This morning was terrible though because I was on the highway for about 10 miles going 65+ at a little over 2500 and almost redlining. Didn’t like the sound or feel of it.

Engine temp was around 190 but trans was sub 140. Typically it’ll kick into OD between 120 and 140 but it’s such a huge range when it takes forever to build temp and you would think the higher the RPM the quicker it would warm but doesn’t seem like it.
