Default Shop Manuals

Is the two-volume Helms manual the same one sold in the Mall? I have the Haynes, but want something detailed for planning various winter projects ... something that would help me determine tools needed, gasket & seal part numbers, wiring diagrams, bolts, torque specs, etc ... Thanks.

Check ebay also, bought my 2 volumn set for 80 bucks, it was new. If they don't have it, keep searching every few days. Good luck :cheers:

The helms is above and beyond the haynes manual. If you are doing your own work get the set. A new set runs $90 from helms direct.

If Helms made my Corvette Shop Manual, then :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod: (I wasn't sure because it says GM-Chevrolet Division on the inside cover...)
