The dealers here ( western Canada ) , have been installing block heaters in the Lincolns when they get them here. Years ago a lot of guys would install small tank heaters in a hose from the water pump to the engine block. I think Temro was the popular brand. I believe temro makes various sizes of block heaters also, you would just have to figure out what size you need to replace the frost plug you take out of the block. Either one is nice for cold weather starting. I usually start plugging in for an hour or two when the temp goes below freezing. - WS
