Olson Engineering = a Scam
What is he doing? What's the harm of 30 different Olson Engineering Wiring Diagrams being offered to Corvette owners from 1953-1981? There are nothing more than the equivalent to a penny stock hyped in chat rooms to fleece $22-25 from folk for a poster. Examine the claims from this advertisement. This is classic false advertising as defined by the FTC.
"match what was on the car originally" - they match the assembly manual, but the assembly manual does not even match a real Corvette - and Don Olson has never looked at them, never circuit tested them, or even photographed them. Factually and sadly, he has no clue as to what is right or wrong. Seriously had anyone thought how this fellow could possibly produce these 30 different posters. He hasn't even ever owned an AIM manual for each year. He just had some of the pages emailed to him. Talk about an armchair mechanic, this one's skill is marketing colored hot air.
they are just the Colored In Assembly Instruction Manual
"all electrical options" - that is if they are in the assembly manual as a schematic, but the assembly manual don't even include all the option schematics, and since he never looked, tested or photographed them - Don Olson does not even know what is missing! Hello: automatic and AC and TCS and CEC are all incomplete or totally missing. How could he tell, since his only experiece with a Corvette is via a mouse. He has invented, fibbed and fuged his Corvette spam very effectively. Many have been duped by his phony Engineering persona. It's just Olson Corvette Snake Oil 2007.

Clear or confusing? What in the above resembles anything found in any Corvette? It's nothing but a confusing eye test that looks impressive but is not accurate. Smoke is not supposed to be released from the wires which happens when wired as above.

"LIGHT BULB DATA" and "FUSE PANEL - FUSE SIZES" is not worth $22. That is free in your owners manual, workshop manual, even Chilton, Clymer and many other sources. How ironic with Don Olson's information, you cannot even tell where what size fuse goes where in the fuse box. You cannot even ID the fuse box. What an abysmal sham. It is no wonder you generally cannot view these before purchase. To just see the above, you must join a chat room that charges $35.00
Don Olson's only claim to fame is authoring a phony inaccurate poster and convincing lots of trusting customers to pay $22 plus. Yuk, yuk have a beer with Don Olson at Corvettes at Carlisle around space G111 - you paid for his presence at the party.
