Don it depends, if you are talking about a 1st gen Dodge like in your picture then it is just a starting aide. The compression of your engine, and speed of cranking make the biggest difference. I have a few 12v Cummins B engines and none have grid heaters, but all have block heaters and they seem to start fine for me.
