Mudrat sent me this:

Sorry don't have a source for block heaters. JC Whitney is showing a couple oil pan heaters though ...

Does anyone know the size of the freeze plug for a 1986 AMC 258 and for a 1977 (I think) AMC 360?

I am also going to check into the lower rad hose install, from what I hear it is easier and works the same.

I have a magnetic one like this some one gave me, haven't tried it yet but from what I hear, they don't work so good:

Question, which is better, the block or the hose installation?

Starting at post 57, I installed the engine block heater, w/pics etc.
