Passenger Side Battery Tray
 

I thought I'd share something that I learned this weekend. Maybe it's common knowledge idk. I'm installing an LS engine in my '64 GTO. I needed to move the battery to the passenger side or run a battery cable over. I decided to move the battery. To my surprise, the battery tray is designed to go on either side. The holes are already there.

Yes holes are there for 6cyl. cars built as starter is on that side.

Ah! I figured that they didn't do it for kicks. Lol! Thanks for the history lesson!

Chevy had planned the 68 up A body well. It had the alternator, starter, battery on the passenger side, they also had the engine and transmission about a 1/2" more to the passenger side. This really helped balance the car out.

Interesting. You dug up an old post lol. I have my battery on the passenger side now. I'm rewiring it with an American Autowire classic update harness. I still have to decide how I'm gonna deal with the horn relay terminal block wiring. Haven't got started on the wiring yet. Still tearing stuff apart to paint etc. Madness...
