Subject:vaccum lines and block heaters

Hello list,
    Again, thx to all who provided answers to my 85
miss at idle problem.  As it turns out, the dipstick
was out, and also i have several poor looking vaccum
line ends. (probably providing several leaks i cannot
hear)...Also, the knock i heard was not the timing, it
is clutch related (went away when the clutch was
pressed in)  As it shifts fine, this can wait till
spring.  How does one go about changing the vaccum
lines...(the ones on my 85 are plastic, with only the
last inch or so being rubber)  Do i replace with all
rubber, or try to splice new ends onto the plastic.
   Lastly, There was a list member a few digests ago,
that had some block heaters for sale for
20$....Anybody know who this was, or if you read this
and it is you, please email me off list.
