Default GM Parts Interchange Manuals -- Any Good?

I've seen these manuals for sale on eBay (haven't really looked anywhere else) for about $30.

I thought maybe AC, wheels, and drivetrain components would be interesting. Plus, I've read here before where you can buy a common GM turn signal stalk a lot cheaper than one marked for Corvettes (so info like that would be helpful).

Anyway, any comments on their usefulness would be appreciated.

Thanks!

The first time it saves you a couple of bucks, you will see why it has a spot in my garage. I believe you can pick one up through Ecklers or Mid America for about $20 :seeya

Well, that's a better deal.
I think this book may go on the Christmas list.
Thanks all!

I have the one from Hollanders, Turns out theres not too much interchangeable between Corvettes and the rest of the world.

Also a big problem is that they only list Identical replacements. If something is better ( like bigger rotors ) it will never be listed as interchangeable!
