Yeah , the s/s springs made way back in the day were far superior to the mexican springs , we used to run the 002-003 springs on the hemi belevedere .
I bought an 850 amp autocraft platinum battery from advance auto, had a 25% discount, and supposed to get a $22 core charge reimbursed to my paypal account =$176.22 , if it works out .
Havent put it in the fish, will do today , Lord willing .

Well I guess part of it for me as I've always kind of wanted to try an optima battery and see how they work. I was always impressed with the old commercial where the guy would drive up to the top of the mountain with his Jeep pull the battery out and shoot it up with his gun and put it back in the Jeep and started up and drive away...
Not that I would do that but it sure left an impression....
