'69 Service Manual
I have a very good, thick '80 Shop Manual and would like to get something like it for the '69 L46. I noted on Zip's corvette catalog that they have a '"69 Service Manual" (I think they got the graphic wrong since it portrays the '86 Shop Manual cover). I see that prior years cover all Chevy; not just Corvette. Is the '69 Service Manual helpful? I would like to refer to it when I dig into my dashboard in the next couple months. If there are other resources out there that have equivalent step-by-step reference material, will be glad to know it.
BTW, the 69 Service Manual appears bargain priced at $29 on Zip's site.

Just be aware that in 69 there is a Service Manual and an Overhaul Manual. In 80 they came as 1 book. The Service Manual is generally better for "light" repairs, but you really need both. Wiring diagrams are in the Service Manual (and Assembly Manual).
Got mine from Wilcox corvette in New Albany, IN. for $20.00.

Thanks All for the good feedback.
Sounds like I need the Service Manual, Assembly Instruction Manual and the Overhaul Manual. I'll try to get all three at the NCRS meet in Olde Town, FL (Orlando/Kissimmee) this Saturday.
