hey guys, been a while since my last post! recently had some record lows which have left me without my ram due to a frozen battery and liquids. got down to -34 the other night. i'm thinking it's time to get a block heater and a battery blanket at the very least.

does anyone know if the 2003 4.7 engine has dry ports for a block heater? i seem to recall reading that on here years ago. If not i'll stick a standard BH in.

in other news, the truck is still running, though I can tell she's getting tired. I think our mountainous country is wearing down the 4.7. I've also noticed she's drinking coolant, so i suspect the cylinder wall has gone out. Not sure if i'll drop a new motor in her or not when she goes. if i do, probably gonna drop a hemi in.

 

My 06 base model 4.7 has a block heater from the factory. You sure you don't have one?
