You can get a 'water heat-exchanger' that replaces the standard air-cooled engine's heater box. This heats water so you can use a heater/demister unit from a water-cooled car or, if in a camper, as a source of hot water for washing or showering. If you just hook this up to a tank above the hieght of the engine, the water circulates by thermo-syphon so you don't even need a pump.
