The Jan issue has a detailed article on how to do it. The only thing that I don't like is the battery placement. My car has t-tops and the battery relocation goes right where the tops are stored. BMR makes a bracket that mounts in the spare tire location. The BMR kit is not a battery box just a hold down bracket which will not pass tech. Over winter I'm gona try to relocate the battery in an enclosed case using the BMR bracket. I still would like to be able to drive the car on the street with the tops off. The more I race the less the car is on the street.

Anyone have any thoughts or links on that? Brady 11-26-2002, 09:08 AM A fellow Board Member "Steve10" sells some pretty cool stuff, including a battery disconnect switch. Check it out at: http://www.mycamaroz28.homestead.com/ matt95z28 11-26-2002, 09:24 PM Does battery relocation make a big difference? kirschman 11-27-2002, 09:43 PM http://flamingriver.com/enter.htm Give these peeps a try on the disconnect switch, looks pretty trick to me. I ordered mine from a local parts store for around 90 bucks. And yes it does help, weight transfer, and of course make the engine bay look alot better!! edit; scroll down to the battery switches and click on the racing one, its at the bottom of the page. 1fastV6 11-28-2002, 07:42 PM The January 2003 issue of GM High-Tech Performance magazine has a detailed article on battery relocation. the 2003 issue? Injuneer 11-29-2002, 12:01 AM Originally posted by 1fastV6 the 2003 issue? Yes. The issue with the feature article about the "Eleven LT1 Bolt-On Cars That Haul".... many of them from this board. Are you not aware that many magazines are post-dated by several months? I received the January 2003 issue (Volume 9, No. 1) at least three weeks ago........... :rolleyes: | ||
