Do you recommend a brand of two tank unit or would building a custom system be just as easy and cost effective?

How long will a purge after a run take if you are just idling?

I switch when I get too or off the highway with is 1.5-2 miles form my house.

Used a coolant heated tank with hose in a hose heated line, tough I would now probably go with the Parker bound 3 hose stuff. Looped fuel return, 3 port electric valve, and manual ball valves to restore normal return function and purge to external jug. I have an aluminum marine tank in the tire well.

Ive seen a lot of kits, and none of them really struck me as automotive grade. I usually spend about $100 at the hydraulic shop for fittings.
