Well, this is post interesting.  I been trying to get my Empire B35 running again but it is missing all of the heater bits (My B35 Post).  I just bought a B30 off eBay that should give me just about all the missing bits I need for my B35.  I have little hopes of the heater working on the B30 (sold as-is / untested).  Even if the heater is operational on the B30, it is likely to fall apart when I start taking it apart.

@Junkologist you helped me a lot with my brother's Jensen and I hope you could help me with my B35 heater - I assume I'll need it.  I just bought the B30 and with a little luck I'll have it by the end of the week (or early next).

I suppose there are many ways to skin this cat but as close to original would be my preference.

TV here’s a good chance the heater is fine on the B30 you have coming to you. When removing it, just be real careful and take your time, especially when removing the leads from the prongs where the cord plugs in.
