88 - 92 Pontiac V8 battery cable
I am moving my battery to the driver side on my 88 Camaro. Looking for a factory Firebird positive battery cable for a V8.

Re: 88 - 92 Pontiac V8 battery cable
Is there any benefit to moving the battery to the passenger side? btw this is not meant to come off as passive aggressive i am just curious why everyone moves there batteries, might make me want to depending on the reason.

Not sure. I am moving mine because I want to run a 4 inch intake pipe to feed my 421 small block. It is easier it run it to the passenger side fender for cool fresh air vs cross the upper radiator hose (heat) and move air past the horns.

Torn, the one I would sell has had the alt connection cut and re attached. Otherwise all connections are good.

Is it just the pic or is the battery terminal damaged?
