As an added bonus you can die from CO poisoning(you forgot to deal with the exhaust) |

Could we take the top off, and perhaps use the pressure in the heating system to somehow drive the engine around - it would be cool to see the pistons going up and down. |

[Plish] is on the money, but as for
[jhomrighaus] - there is no exhaust -
you have failed to understand the idea
and now
must be punished in an unusual way. |

You will paint a large number of
cockroaches with harmless bright
varnish,
coat them with sprinkly material and
carry
pockets full of them to work every day
for
a week, attending dutifully to their
every
whim, before cleaning them up and
releasing them. |

Someone did the car engine as central heating before, but I think they left it in the car. I'll see what I can find. |
|

I misunderstood in the same way. And I refuse to paint cockroaches, I live in Georgia, US, so it would take too much paint, even with a roller. |

This is not a V6 "heater" it is a V6 "radiator" |
|

DrCurry - if the engine is left in the car
then it's not much of an idea as it's still
just being and engine, with a remote
heater - so for that feeble idea, you get
a fart. |

[GC] you won't be painting cockroaches,
that's reserved for [jhomrighaus] For
your failure to understand the idea you
will be numbering all the pieces of
gravel on my driveway with letraset, in
6 point Helvetica. |

OK I get it now and it makes a lot more sense. I think to do this right though you need to use an old 30s era Straight Eight out of an old Caddy. I might have to install one of these in my garage someday. [+] (unless you still want me to paint roachs then It will be a (-)) |

xenzag: actually, I think my conclusion on that earlier idea was that it would be about as useful in heating a house as that fart. |

Sweet. Can an alternator be motorized without any modifications? I think so. Maybe. |
