Cummins marine advises against heating fuel beyond 125°F and actually recommends keeping the fuel close to 75°F to prolong injector pump life and the best fuel economy.
You don't need to heat the fuel since the injectors are screwed into the cylinder head. So by the time the fuel is injected it's already at cylinder head temperature.
I have an artic fox fuel heater to install. I'm going to limit it's temperature to around 100°F.
