Re: Battery Question.
I know it's not a 69 camaro, but...while researching into my 70 Monte Carlo, I found that if the heavy duty battery option was ordered, it came with side terminals, otherwise got the top posts.

Re: Battery Question.
I thought just the opposite for 69. I thougt after June you got side terminals, unless you ordered HD battery, in which case you got top posts.
Also, I thought small block grounded on the upper alternator bracket, and big block grounded on the block itself.

Re: Battery Question.
I agree with drdave,
My 06A Survivor 69RSZ28 has side terminal cables ( original), and the original battery was a Y77. Very unique battery, the positive and negative cables have different bolt sizes in the side of the battery, 5/16" thread and 3/8" thread, making it impossible to hook up the cables incorrectly. The negative cable grounds to the stud that holds the upper alt bracket onto the thermostat hsg. I have owned the car since 1972 and it is documented. Just my .25 worth, hope it helps.
