When I did the head gasket on my '89 I decided to replace the block heater...should be easy since the head and exhaust manifold are both out of the way, right? Sure, if one remembers to actually install it when the head is still off the car! I ended up doing it anyway...but I took the three bolts off the piece that the heater goes into and removed the entire assembly. Yeah, it's tough and you end up doing it blind as you can't see anything.
When it came time to do something about my daughter's '90, I bought a magnetic heater...I stick it up onto the skid plate about 30 minutes before she needs to leave in the morning and it seems to warm it up enough that the car always started.
