I'm pretty sure that's not going to be the same as the actual manuals.

BWAHAHAHAHA!!! "Once you have downloaded this manual it is yours to keep forever. You can print out one page, chapter or the whole thing. You can also download it to your tablet or smart phone if required." You can even resell it to other people on Ebay!

There is NO digital shop manual made. Helm creates the GM (as well as many other manufacturers) manuals and they will NEVER create a digital version that can be copied. It costs to much to create to make it "free".

I doubt this, like most of the other ripoff "shop manuals" is even a copy of the real manual. The real manual is over 4,700 pages. Cutting out that many pages for a document feeder is no easy task. The real manual costs about 4 cents a page. I'd bet this "manual" costs more than that per page.

I purchased a digital copy of a factory service manual for my 2007 Harley Ultra years ago for $5. It appears to be the real deal, although I found out later that it is not HDMC authorized and most likely illegal to sell. So I use it but will never sell it.

There is the GM SI that you can use on line.
http://www.acdelco.com/for-professio...formation.html


What most of these CD are, is a cracked/pirated version of the GM SI program that will work while not connecting to GM, so works without needing a GM subscriptions instead.

So really, someone finds a copy of the pirated GM SI software on line, copies it, and then starts burning DVD's to charge for what they downloaded for free themselves.

Factory service manual is going to be 2 books for approx $250+ depending on their condition. There are no 'official' digital copies.
Example - https://www.ebay.com/itm/2005-Chevro.../184661085333?

This may be an affordable and helpful option for $20-50 ??

When I had my C6, I took it to Chevy dealer to get the oil pan gasket replace. BTW, this was a dealer who had a Corvette mechanic. Once the job was finished, which took about 4-5 hours, he got on his computer to download the service manual. It just so happened that their wifi was down, so he had to wait about an hour. He needed to find out the torque settings and the tightening sequence. The old 3" thick paper manuals are rarely used anymore. Plus, if on the computer, GM can update specs anytime its needed.
