Default 71 and early sharks specs.

I'm posting 40pgs. of specs. for a 71 vette, some info. applies to other early sharks.
I'm not a computer wiz, so it would be great if someone can copy this where it can remain on this forum as a reference.

previous owner of my vette gave me the info several years ago,
I just needed the time to scan and post it all.

I believe the info is part of the GM Canada Vintage package you get when
requesting the build sheet for Canadian shipped vettes.

The term "Sharks" is affectionally applied to all the C3's..... 68 thru 82.
