Default Part Numbers

Any one know if a part stays the same from year to year , do the numbers stay the same in the assembly manuals?

Depends on the part, some did, most didn't
Need to know which part you're talking about

Sometimes part numbers are carried for many years. At the time of production, the part numbers in the AIM are current, but GM is notorious for superceding numbers . Hope this helps.

No particular part I'm just trying to figure out what parts are interchanable on different year cars.

There are books available (interchange manuals) that not only tell you whihc parts fit other Corvettes but which other GM vehicles have the same identical part but with maybe a different part number. For instance Pontiac part # xxxx might be the same part as Corvette part # yyyy.
I have seen these books at swap meets and on e-bay from time to time.
Hope that helps,
Kurt
