As message traffic is rather low, I thought I'd post a link to some interesting reading:

Very good article Carlos,
I use an electric "milk house" heater that trickles heat via a small fan
and is very adjustable to the point
that you can hardly hear it going. In this winter's sub-zero temps and
my unheated steel hangar, the inside
of my cowling is just warm, or nearer 60-degrees or so. The Subaru
engine metal is uniformly luke warm and
not cold to the touch. I place a towel over the nose of the cowl and
around the spinner to hold the warmth
inside and the duct and custom fit pieces for the heater unit were very
inexpensive and not hard to make.
It's going on 3 years now and when temps get back in the 20s, I plan on
flying.
see links to see the heater and parts,

The heater was obtained from Lowe's
Happy 2010 guys!
