My 190d 2.2 is a blank slate. What should i use for a 1 tank WVO conversion in MN?

Car is an 85 190d 2.2 OM601. Drives great, starts right up. New filter, glow plugs and relay in the mail. Now i want to convert it to veggie oil and am wondering what people have had success with in cold climates? I am in MN and it has gotten as low as -15 and winterized diesel + diesel 911 gelled up on me! But its been above 25 lately and i am itching to do my first wvo conversion! Here is my scenario:
I have plenty of garage space in a non insulated, non heated garage. When im out there wrenching, i have a 125,000 btu reddy heater (diesel/kero).
I also have some space in the utility room in the basement of the house that is heated.
My friend manages an oil change place and says i can have all the metal or plastic 55 gal drums i want (the whole shop is actually heated by the old oil they drain from cars! Really cool)
So i am wondering, what i should start out doing. So far i planned on getting a drum or two with some 2 micron socks and finding my wvo source. I will probably have to filter indoors during the winter.

Now with the car i was planning on getting some injector line heaters like this:

making my own HIH aluminum coolant heated hose lines with one of these:

that i would zip tie to it and splice into the block heater's plug.

Do you think that would be sufficient for the winter weather? Ideally i would run 100% wvo, but i will probably have to settle for 50/50 in the winter. Do you think i will need a heated filter or any of that expensive crap?
Do the stick on heating pads for the fuel tank work well with our cars, or is it best to put an internal heating element in there?
