Default C5 Repair Manual

Does anyone publish a repair manual for a C5, like Chilton's or whoever???? Would like to take some parts off the engine and powder coat them but not sure what I'll be getting myself into.

Helm, Inc. publishes the service manuals used by GM dealers. You can order them direct, or get them from a forum supplier.

Hi there,
We sell them for 124.95 shipped, less than HELM!

Thanks,
Gene.

Yup, Helm publishes the Service Manuals for GM. They are the books the dealers use.

Default All Data

I use www.Alldata.com, a subscription service, which has the service manual on line along with recall, safety, and TSB information. $25.00/year.

Default manuals

Get them from Beans. Two manuals over 2" thick each. Well worth the price I paid.
