Service Manual Question - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Johnny5 · 01-25-2015

Anyone know where I can get a good deal for the service manuals for a 1991 ZR1? I saw the LT5 supplement on ebay but I'm not sure if that is an additional one for the regular lt5 book or if that is the whole engine book itself. And can you buy a normal 1991 corvette manual for the rest of the car or do you need a zr1 specific for everything besides the engine?

I found both my Service Manuals (Book 1 & 2) along with the LT5 Engine Book for my 94 on ebay. You just have to keep checking for your year. And there isn't a specific ZR-1 manual(s) for any of the 90-95 Z's that I know about, just get the 91 Book(s), along with the LT5 supplement and you will be fine. And welcome to the forum, you will like it here......

You only need to be sure you purchase both Book 1 & 2 for the '91MY and only those with red covers. Those that have white covers are "preliminary" release product and are considered to be incomplete. he "supplement" that you see is just that.

I would need to look but I may actually have both book 1 & 2 for a '91. I would need to unpack some boxes but I do believe I might.

The supplement is useful for a quick reference for LT5 information like fastener torques or the exact order in which to disassemble R&R various assemblies. All this information (and more) is covered in the big book set, but it is a lot faster to thumb through the "skinny book" when double checking something. I spent $15 to get mine, but not sure I'd spend anymore for the pleasure of owning one.

the two book sets were going for $65-ish a few years back, but sometimes are hard to find. check the other forum for sale area- I got a set that way.

I just come here.....more knowledge in this room than any of those books!

I bought the paper copies on ebay kust in case i need certain photos or can't find someting from someone one day. $130 isn't bad for all 3 books.

That's double what i paid 4-5 years ago for the 91 and the 95 book set I own. The manuals seem to be a better investment than the cars.

I have the 3 originals along with a complete parts book , got them free when i bought 3 zr1s in 93.

if you want a copy let me know
