Sun Electric Corp.-66-67.

[Richard S.]

I recently acquired a Sun Electric Corp. specification chart for my 66 427/390. This chart gives me an incredible amount of information specific to the exact car I have. I have never seen such detailed, specific information on one chart before. The two sided chart is titled: "061 1966 chevrolet-corvette V8 turbo jet-390 427 cu.in.engine"
In the bottom left hand corner there is a form number: "690-660-061"
Does anyone know if Sun Electric Corp. made a similar form for 1967? I would dearly love to obtain one of these charts for my 67 427/435 car. Thanks.

Before you guys go out and spend all your money on the old Sun Spec Charts, there is similar information in a more comphrensive format in the form of tune-up sheets published by an outfit called "AEA" Automotive Electrical Association" (or similar name).

Rick,

The chart you have, and hundreds more for almost every vehicle known to man, were part of the accessories for the Sun diagnostic machines that were the standard of the industry in the 1950s to 1980s. They were made to be stored in box(es) hung on the side of the diagnostic machine.

Take the information with a grain of salt. Most are derived from manufacturers information provided at the beginning of the model year. Thus later-in-the-year introductions, like the 1965 396, may have little or no information. Conversely there are charts for engines never produced - the 1970 LS7 is among those.
