Heater core, A/C, tire pressures... (long)

1. I was afraid of this, but I'm smelling coolant through the vents... I added bar's leaks, and it helped some, but it's not gone. There's hardly any coolant loss (none that I noticed) pressure is good, and the engine temp is normal. I know the heater core sucks to replace. Is there anything else I should replace while I'm in (blower motor, etc.)? Is the Haynes manual any good for this job? Where would be a good place to order parts (townsend?)
2. My A/C is leaking... oil I think. Will the clutch go pretty soon? Still cools fine. Anyone else had this?
3. Low profile tires. I'm running 215/40 17s, and I've heard a bunch of different opinions on what the tire pressure should be. I run it higher because of the small sidewall (protect the rim). Some say leave it at what the manual says. Any clarification here?
Sorry about this, but I've been off the net for a while, and need to work on my car. I just moved to utah. Anyone know of any good mechanics?
Cheers
