Default correct fuses

Can someone tell me the correct fuses/amps for my 66 sb? I just replaced a broken fuse box and the fuses were so old I could not read the amps.

Thanks,
Chub

Howdy. Owner's manual and service manuals are readily available from the corvette parts vendors.

Actually, anyone with an old car such as these should carefully look at what fuses are in the car. I didn't realize how messed up mine were till I rewired the '67 last year. Some under-fused, some way over-fused for at least the last 19 years I'd owned it. At least there were no 22 bullets as replacement fuses!
