Title: Chevrolet Performance Manual, or 'green sheets'?
Post by: 69Z28-RS on February 20, 2009, 07:04:46 PM

Is anyone familiar with the original Chevrolet Performance book?   Around 50 pages of mostly handwritten engineering information and engineering drawings and parts numbers to help late '60's/early 70's camaro and corvette racers?   It was on 'green paper', so some people refer to these as 'green sheets' I believe.  I consider it to be the genesis or forerunner of the 'later' Chevrolet 'Power Book'.... 
Are these manuals available from anywhere?  Is there any interest in having copies reproduced?

I've got a book that says "Special Chevrolet Equipment".  It's a repro high performance parts and modifications booklet with a white cover and the insides are green old typewritten pages about 50 or so.  Jim Osborn reproductions.  I got it at Rick's.
