H-I-J '76 Nova re-fit.

Thought I'd throw my 2 cents in on the battery discussion...I've been running a pair of the 11 lb Brailles for 3 seasons now, and they are awesome. At the Topeka divisional a couple of weeks ago, I pulled a bonehead move and left the water pump running for about 4 hours. When they finally called us up, I got in the car, hit the switch, and nothing! Completely dead! Threw the charger on for about 10 minutes and it was enough to get it running. Drove to the lanes (thanks, alternator!), and had to start it twice to move up...no problem! My wife had the jump box with her, but we didn't need it. Not bad for 3 year old batteries. I'll definitely buy them again when the time comes.
