Helms Manual, What wiring is similar to an 82 Firebird?

Hey I just talked with a Helm person and they told me that this service manual does not include wiring or body. I was wondering what other year would be similar to an 82 Trans Am with an LG4 and 200C. They have an 84 Firebird Manual that includes wiring and body.

Well, I just went to the Helm Inc site online and it appears that the description for all the f-body shop manuals reads the same:

More than 3000 pages of repair instructions written by General Motors, this is the original manual. It contains Diagnostic Information and Procedures, Schematics and Routing Diagrams, Component Locator, Repair Instructions, Description and Operation, Specifications, and Special Tools and equipment. Service information on HVAC, Body & Accessories, Restraints, Steering, Suspension, Driveline/Axle, Brakes, Engine and Transmission/Transaxle.

I checked 1982, 1984, 1992, and 1997. I just can't imagne that it wouldn't include the electrical schematics. Even my 1981 Camaro Helm manual includes it. Why would they skip 1982 and 1983? Are you should you spoke with a knowledgable person?

No I'm not. I think she was reading the same thing you wrote, then asked someone else.

I just checked my factory '82 Firebird manual (that does include complete body and wiring sections). My manual has the same part number (S-8210F) that Helm lists. While some service manuals for other vehicles do have seperate wiring schematic sheets or manuals, this one has it included.
