Braille has their own slick mount for that battery... https://www.braillebattery.com/index...inum_mount_kit I elected to just use the factory tray on the Camaro and fabricated my own simple mount strap.

I do own one of the Braille battery chargers, but ended up just using our old utility charger for the most part. Does not seem to have impaired the performance/lifespan of the battery in any way.

I'll do the same, just a strap and the factory box.

Wrestled the u-joints in and got the driveshaft installed. More wiring and made some coolant hoses today. I have been avoiding trying to align the fenders because I hate it (and I suck at it). It ain't pretty but other than ordering some shims for the bottom of the fenders i'm over it and done messing with it. So till tomorrow, here are some pics.

Not a whole lot to report from the Sunday thrash. Still working on wiring but at least we are seeing some stuff actually turn on. Made some templates for more brackets then went home and ordered more parts.

Ebay changed the link somehow...it clearly showed a 3003 earlier.

Edit - They changed it again...showing a different item and another date as well as being out of stock lol.

Seems they all say that but when questioned they're "out of stock". I need one bad too!

My buddy came by today and picked up the templates for the fuel cell brackets and the weight tanks. Dropped off the carb to another buddy and he'll check the carb for warpage and put new gaskets in it.
