Is it possible to fit a heater in a morris lowlight or similar sidevalve engine.

yes but from what i hear the bottom radiator exit pipe has to be modified and then a water pump added.

You can electric water pumps.
The old 440 / 480 Volvo turbos have them as standard (low down on nearside inner wing - follow bottom hose).
I got one from the local scrap yard for £5

Thank you for the replies,does the cylinder head not need an outlet as in later minors and what about the thermostat, i,m sure one is required,i would need to know what the whole job requires.
