Long, long time no post... How is everyone?
I've made some progress on the car and recently removed the rusty battery tray and stand with the intention of relocating the battery to the front. I know I've seen write ups on this, but can't for the life of me find any of them. I've purchased an affordable kit from Summit so I have the main parts. I'm just hung up on what the correct thing to do with the original mess of wires that attach to the positive side of the battery in the engine compartment. Thanks. -Aaron |

If you're going to relocate it anywhere, put it in the rear trunk. Even with a taller gel-cell battery I can still fit the top in the rear with no clearance issues. You also only have to run a new longer red cable to the starter from the battery.
