Paul Sharp is an unknown quantity at this point
Mine wasn't working in my '67 T337B when I bought it. But I had a shop in Iowa (on the way home to the intermountain west), and it has worked well ever since. Requires maintenance from time to time, regular AD checks (hopefully there is an hour meter on yours or they have to do it every annual instead of every 200 hours or whatever the limit is). But it works well and I have no fear of using it. And out here with winter weather, and at altitudes on colder spring and fall days, we really need it.

So, my T model does have the heater and in fact I didn't think any Turbos had any other kind. (P's are turbos too, of course.)

I think there are a lot of old time feelings out there about "lighting a fire" and all that stuff. But I think there is little danger, especially if well-maintained. It has shut-offs, overheat protection, etc.
