I still am trying to figure out why the battery exploded
under the hood on start up.??

Remember back in Auto Shop one of the first things the teach you is NOT TO SMOKE around a battery!!! a leaking battery only needs a spark to blow ITSELF up. Most likely a bad cable arced when you turned the key.

No one was smoking around the car so it must of been a battery cable, however I have new ones on the car.??
Maybe one of the cables was loose and sparked when I tried to start the car.
