[chevyflan]

I have a john deere 420 with a cab and 47 snow blower does anyone have that set up and been able to get engine heat back to the cab.

Not without getting exhaust fumes into the cab as well

Iv tried as well to keep exhaust fumes out and bring engine heat in, I even tried running a duct from engine compartment but,,,,,, that didn't work either lol

On my 445 I found a reverse flow fan does wonders. Cab is hot even in 5 degree outside temp.

I've got a 78 316 with a cab and 18 Vanguard repower . I found a metal / rubber boot vent stack thingy at Menards , fit perfectly over the front grill . Clamped a 3"pvc elbow in it pointed up , reduced to 2" , up and back over the hood into a hinged metal panel on my Cozy cab .I hole sawed the panel and another short 90 pointed up at the front glass . Works great . I have run it 5 years and have had 0 problems with exhaust fumes . I have a stack on the muffler to make sure the exhaust gets away . Between this and the residual heat off engine and hydro it can be shirt sleeves on a sunny day .If I ever develop an exhaust leak it could be a problem , but I keep a very close eye on that . I can slip the pipe off over the hood and have it open in less than a minute to check oil and such .This was one of those experiments that actually worked quite well .
