Hello Friends. Chilton and Haynes Manuals are just not good enough for me. I need nitty-gritty details. I'm an aircraft mechanic, and the manuals I use to keep your planes in the sky are so packed with details, they would put an actuary to sleep.

The price tag on the genuine GM service manuals shocked me, though!
Rick's Camaros has a full set for $400, and I found some used copies on e-bay for about $275.

Does anyone know if I could get these on CD-rom somewhere? Or do I need to take a GM tech out drinking so I can get photocopies of the pages I need?

Thanks in advance!

I have been a aircraft mechanic for over 30 years and I dont think the GM manual is going to give you the detail, notes and warnings ect you get in a AMM but I have not seen a Gm manual in many years.

you need to quit messing around and buy the GM manual from Hahn. Info is in the back of your owners manual.
