grid heater in my chevy conversion?

Does anybody know if I can put a grid heater in my chevy without too much effort? I have a first gen in the truck and I put a manifold, intake and grid heater off of an second gen motor on my truck for the cold months an now I need to know how to wire it. I have the wiring from the intake to the resistors but I need to know how to wire it from the chevy. My new house is at about 6500 ft in altitude and the winters are cold so I want the grid heater if possible. Also, any of you guys in the cold country, do I need to get a fuel heater? I have racor filters and I think they make a fuel heater that screw right on the existing filters.
