Re: Battery Placement Question

That should work great in the tool box as long as you run a heavy enough cable.

Years ago I had the battery under my hood on my 48 for a short time. Ruined a finned aluminum valve cover after battery crud dripped on it and besides that the only thing uglier under the hood than a power brake booster and master cylinder is a battery.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
