Default work shop manuals, Y2K cpe

What is the best work shop manual for my 2000 cpe? I also own a 1990 BMW 5 series and have a Bentley manual that has proved to be an excellent source of information when it comes to workin on that car. Any recommendations for the Vette??

Manual put out by HELMS. To my knowlwdge, these are the only ones available. They are supported by GM. There are no "chilton" type books. The Helms are usually 3 volumes (some years are 2). A number of the forum vendors sell them for around $150ish. You can sometimes pick up used ones on E-bay.

I believe Fitcher chevrolet (forum supporting dealer) was selling the manuals for about $125 plus shipping. That was the price about two months ago. Give them a shot.
