Also have stainless steel "directors" in front of the air inlet/outlets to force the air to "take the long way around".

That's good. Thanks for the pictures.  I will be making something similar.    I take you must have went flying yesterday because today is down in the teens.  Some weather!

Tested in 35 degree OAT, which around here in the winter we call "warm". This puts out a lot more heat than before. I actually had to turn it off after a little bit.

Also, I have a Carb Temp Gauge, and could see how effective this was for carb heat.

Much improved from before. Will have more opportunity to test in cooler temperatures in coming months.

Works better than before, but would like to improve it more.

More tweaks and testing tomorrow...
