Default Re: Side Post Battery

Why did you ask where it was grounded?

Ron, if I can answer this for mr70, this is a heavily debated question on '70 Chevelles and I have never heard a complete answer to the question. Only that it may have had something to do with the battery style and build dates. It is pretty common to see the T-60 battery with the engine mounted ground.

I am interested in the video and info as well. Please shoot me an e-mail with $$ to cover your costs. Also, if you shoot me an e-mail with the photos, I will post them here for you. However, it is quite simple. When you post a response, it states, "I want to preview my post and/or attach a file". Click on that, browse to find the picture and then attach. It is VERY simple here. If it doesn't work, shoot me the photos and I will do it for you.

Bingo!
That is what I meant.Jury still out on that theory though.Humans did make mistakes.

I did find a few 1970 Dealer invoices with T-60 on them earliest was a MonteCarlo from Sept.69.I would think the Nova was possible to get the T-60 R79 Side terminal in August.Paperwork for salesmen suggests that now anyway.

Yes Rick, Keiths Sept.69 l-78 Elco did get the R-79 too.So did a 1970 L-79/L-89 November 69 built Chevelle....thats one I am working on!

3:31 rearend was possible in Sept.69 for a Chevelle anyway,so that looks to be the real deal in your Nova.

Great another Minnesotian,six degrees of Minn. [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
