By the way...anyone reading this that has a 77 or a 79, Don has authorized me to sell his diagrams for these years. He mistakenly left them at my house duing the Tune For Beer tour.

The best diagram that I have found was right in the AIM. All I did was copy the pages and then align them with the print alignment marks. It is really big and readable.

I'm hoping he made it to Carlisle so I can get one while I'm here. If not, I plan to order one.

I didn't get to go to Carlisle as planned, we blew up a 2007 prototype engine for a mfr we are doing development work on. We are really scrambling now on it its replacement. No one here is in a good mood.

I'm new to pretty much everything Corvette-related, since I just got my car. Maybe someone can explain if there are any differences between the wiring diagrams you can buy off Ecklers vs. Don's wiring diagrams?

I have one of the Lectric Limited wiring diagrams that you can get from all the suppliers. It's pretty good but the lines are so small they are hard to read and the connectors are too small to understand. Don's diagrams are bigger and in color. Once he has one for the 82's I'll get one.

I have one of Dons diagrams for my 76. Its on my garage wall. The color coded lines are nice and easy to see even with my dim lighting from my unfinished garage. The lamination has it so I can still read the thing after tracing the lines with oily fingers. Ill buy another from him when I buy another vette
