For different reasons of course. Key word..circulate. Maybe that method would apply in your case. Just a thought.

Have you thought of using your stock block heater in conjuction with your aftermarket heater?
The standard block heater doesn't heat the radiator either, I don't think it does anyway. Thermosiphon they call what I got, a pump system would be better but they cost a lot more.
