Trunk battery relocation question?

[Steve1968LS2]

Steve - I need to do the same to my '68, mind sharing pics as you progress?

There in lies my constant problem.. sharing pics online that are part of stories that will be in the magazine.

Your main thing (if you care about passing NHRA tech) is if you're going to use a battery box of if you want to bulkhead off the trunk. I chose the bulkhead route since it also provides a fire/smoke barrier and the box looked lame with the tiny battery in it.

Also, do you want a master disconnect switch? Willing to mount it in your rear valance? If not then you will need a $50 remote disconnect kit (Moroso). This way you only need to make a small hole in the panel or in a light.

The Fairlane install came out very clean, not "show car" clean but neat and tidy.

Here's a very low res. Look for the story in the September PHR.
