After researching a lot, I couldn't find any info on if a freeze plug heater would work/fit on a Ford 1110. Now that I have one installed, I figured I would make a post so others searching can find the info.
Messisks has both CNH industries, part # 86590117 & 86590273, listed as potential parts. I went with 86590117 simply because it was 30% cheaper. I am not 100% sure of the difference as they are both 400w 40mm (1" 9/16) freeze plug heaters that look the same from the pictures. Both parts do not state they fit 1110, but 86590273 does say it fits 1210. My guess is any heater that is 40mm or 1 9/16" will most likely fit (like Kat's # 11401 or Zerostart 3100049)
The location of the freeze plug is on the rear of the block between the gas tank and the engine block. To install the heater, you will need to remove the gas tank. I chose the upper freeze plug as the transmission slightly covers the lower one. 86590117 fit best in the 2 o'clock position but potentially could fit in the 11 o'clock position. The clearances were very tight, but everything fit. With the gas tank on, there is just enough clearance for the electrical cord to fit ( about a few mm is between the electrical cord and the gas tank).
Hopefully, this description and pictures help if someone else wants to install one. As I use it more, I will post any updates if I have any issues.
