the energy to warm up a vehicle is significant

Within reason the hotter you can keep all the fluids the better. A complete block until warm then partial, just so the fan doesn't turn on. For the same reason an air dam and splitter keep the gear boxes warm. The choke equivalent is on until warmed up. O2 sensors must up to temp before ECU goes closed loop.

Too hot and I ruin't the rear main seal. (+250 oil bad)

I am goin'a try heating the gasoline, one of these days, how hot is too hot any suggestions.
