Part Numbers Cross-Reference
I’m looking for a Chevrolet/Corvette book that will give me cross-references for part numbers. In other word, if the part number for the left exhaust manifold on my car is 1234567, what other Chevrolet/Corvette part number would also work but was not original equipment for this particular car.
I am thinking of purchasing a “barn find” (a ’57) with a lot of missing parts. I would like to restore as a driver but not necessarily with original parts, but with parts that would be functionally the same such as the exhaust manifolds, bellhousing etc..
Anybody familiar with such books?
Thanks,
Pierre

The books that the wrecking yards use are published by Hollander. There are always a bunch of them for auction on Ebay. Do a search on "Hollander", and I'm sure you'll come up with a few books.

Yeah, there is/was one that NCRS used to sell. Covered all years.
I suffer CRS. Let me see if I can remember the title.
I think is was something like "I Need A Part For My Classic Corvette". Chuck

I wasn't crazy, honest. That's the name. I have it somewhere. It's OK, as I recall. Nothing special. Tells you stuff you already know for the most part. Chuckhttp://astore.amazon.com/gp/detail.h...sin=0964693801
