Moved the 81 TA
So moved the 81 TA from the house to the shop so I have more room. Need to align the driver door better and home garage too tight. Although it was 100+ heat index it all went OK. I have always tied the front of the car down using the slots in the lower A arms next to the shocks. Found out the Global West arms do not have some thing there to grab on to! Had to use the frame and that keeps the front suspension for taking up some of the movement.
The 04 GTO was in the slot I wanted to put it in-battery was dead totally and I dorve it a couple of weeks ago. Swapped in the one form the 78 TA I had recently charged-at least it clicked!. Had an Optima there but the cables need some "engineering" to fit

Optima Red tops only have a couple of configurations that O reily carries. Had bot the other batteries tested last night -bad but both 5 years old.

Optima is just OK , I have one in the trunk of the Camaro and since "dry" I did not have to have a sealed box and vent tube. They are OK. I think all brands have gotten crappier in the past 5-10 years.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
