I was going to buy one but they are 190 bucks for a 90. I have a Haynes and another one like it but they can be a little vague. It is easier to ask here and maybe get some nice pics on how to do something.

Once you use it a few times you'll be able to peruse it much easier. I still have difficulty every once in a while finding a specific section, torque value, etc, but you'll be able to work through it.
Ultra - watch ebay, they come up frequently. Matthew |

They're not without typo errors, either. For example, mine says to torque the valve covers to something like 106 ft/lb, which would be great if you wanted the valve covers to end up in the oil pan. But good to have, regardless.

LOL, I'll be careful and use common sense with regards to the torque figures.
I'm sure it will be confusing, GM is great at that. The FSM for my old 70 Z/28 advised disconnecting the negative battery terminal to avoid jumping the starter when replacing the oil filter. I want to see the tool that removes the filter from the other side of the block! |
