Here are the details for the 4 items that make up the oil and water preheat system on the red 92 VX

1. Circulating water heater and pump. Made by HotStart Hotflow model #CTM 120 volt. This item lists for $700, but we were able to find one on EBAY for $300. There are some Chinese made ones out there for around $120, just make sure it is wired for American 120 volt and 60 hertz. Many are EURO 220 50 hertz and will not work in US.

2. Block water heater. Majestic Honda.com part number 08T44-SRO-100G was $29.40

3. Oil pan 400 watt heat pad. Moroso part number 23996 5"X7". Got it from Amazon for $59.99

4. Transmission oil heater pad. Proheat .com. model 32. The invoice says 75 watt, so I guess I only thought it was 120 watt. Anyway it seems to work just fine. I got this one because it was small enough to lay flat on the bottom of the trans. The instructions say you cannot have any voids or ridges under the pad. It cost $45.95.

Hope this is the information you needed. Let me know if you have any others questions about the system.
