Just picked up broken induction burner off of eBay. They said the top was broken and the electronics should be working. We'll see when it gits here.
So I had this crazy idea...install a stainless steel box under the oil pan and plumb it into the cooling system. With the induction coil installed under the coolant box, it should heat up the coolant and the oil at the same time and keep the burner from "frying" the engine oil. My engine bay belly pan should keep anything from puncturing the added coolant box. Heck...it might even keep the oil temps from rising too far, too!
Not sure how I'm gonna mount it to the bottom of the oil pan though. I'm not sure that I should try to use any of the oil pan fasteners to secure it to the engine.
