If this was srictly true, then oil coolers don't work. Since we know oil coolers 
work...

Sorry Ken....  physics are physics.....   in cold weather  a 3 plate cooler will work on any street engine...
that should tell you something...  
 There's not enough heat  to offset the BTU  losses  in a Corvair body...  let alone heat it up...
 Sadly.. I tried once...and I know how to make a Vair engine run HOT  in cold weather...
 And  inland SoCal  seldom stays below 40f... and it didn't work...
But you're back east...    prove me wrong!!!
