You specify the truck when you buy the heater. They'll give you the correct size and the instructions will tell you how to install it. It'll say something about locating the element at 9:00 o'clock or the like. The position varies based on engine and year. Make sure you follow those directions because if you position it so the heater element touches the block, it'll burn out. Punch out the old freeze plug like the instructions tell you to, be sure to clean up the hole by using some emery cloth (get some when you buy the heater) put a little cooking oil (NOT engine oil!!!) on the O ring, and place it in the hole. Tighten the screw on the heater like it says to do and then run the cord. Make sure to keep the cord out of the way of any moving parts like belts, drive shafts, tie rods, etc. Put the antifreeze back in, check for leaks, let it get hot, shut it off, check antifreeze level again.
Then, when it gets cold, plug that sucker in and in the morning, it'll start up without that roaring, high speed idle you're used to. Just remember, the transmission is not warmed by that heater, so give it a break when you leave.
