Bought and installed the 27F battery in place of the 5 year old 24F. ( long story involving the tray)
Now I find that the negative cable is too short because of the length of the new battery.
I bought a 32" cable that should do the trick, but want to rout it correctly. The old cable went from the battery post to the block under the alternator, almost a "straight" shot because it was only about 25". With the new one I'll have some slack and want it to stay away from the alternator and at least make it look neater. Couldn't find any pictures either. Not a big deal, but want to try to keep it "right".
