If anyone out there has an old working or even nonworking fuel heater assembly please give me a shout. Or If someone could tell me the thickness of the mount that would work as well.

I am putting in a cam in my 24valve and want to convert to the 12 valve liftpump but it appears to require that fuel heater assembly as a spacer to the block. I have never seen one and at least here I can barely find any 12 valves in the wrecking yards much less one with any parts left on it.

Any help would be appreciated

i get most of my parts, including the filter strainer for that housing from my local Cummins parts dealer. Have em look up the housing part number and order one up for you.
Hope it helps!?
Cheers!

Nomad thanks for the info.
All I really needed is the mount portion of the assembly. I would hack off the rest of it. I just need the mount for the spacing for the fuel pump (apparently it is sandwiched in between the pump and the block). I have since been informed that Cummins makes a spacer for just that purpose so that you can remove the entire fuel heater assembly and it is only 12.00. Called up the local Rocky Mountain Cummins and sure enough they even have one in stock.

I never measured , but by memory & eye , I would say between 1/4" & 5/16"
.
Then there is a spacer & gaskets .

You need this part number:

3914284 Spacer (qty1)

It is just the spacer, which is about 1/4" thick. I think its around $10 from cummins. Us 1st gen guys use it when converting to a piston LP.
