Block heater for 2015 Yukon Denali 6.2

[SWiftlola]

told by dealer that there is no block heater available for 6.2 gas engine in Yukon Denali AWD. Hard to believe that a block heater cannot be installed on this engine. Any suggestions?

It is very possible that GM does not have a block heater for that engine/driveline combination. Does not mean you cannot get one. They used to have a couple of types of block heaters. One is the traditional heater that goes into a core plug hole. The other was one that went into a heater hose. It is possible that the core plugs in the new 6.2 are too close to the cylinders and there is no room for the heater element. Get one that fits in the heater hose. The inline model actually moves the coolant. The in block variety relies on heat rising to warm the block.
