I have an MG C GT. I also prefer originality but i can still keep the 6 volts in case i want them back. What improvements can i expect from a 12 volt battery?

Only if you keep them on a charger, and probably not even then. You will probably have to get two new ones, or get them rebuilt. Paul

I don't think you get any noticeable "improvement" except when the time comes to replace the battery and you save money. Also, I suppose, you have only half as many battery posts to keep clean. A mod

I've been lurking on this thread so far, but now my question can no longer be restrained. I use a single 12-volt battery in my MGBs and although I live in the mountains of Southwest Virginia where cr

I'll give it try: Have one good 12V battery as descibed in the last mail form James Nazarian. When the car is not driven daily: have the battery loaded by means of what is called here a "driploader".

It was 26 degrees last night here in the TX hill counry. She fired up in a flash this morning on the single 12 volt 26R from AutoZone. If the engine is tuned right and the proper starting procedures

Charley is absolutely right about that, and here in the southwest Virginia mountains we've already seen overnight lows around 14-15 degrees. At those temperatures, my Bs are tuned well enough to star

Brrrr, too cold for this southern boy! ;^) When I was in Alaska (Ft. Greeley) one winter, below-zero temps were common. However all the cars had a battery blanket and a block heater. The battery blan

As with most things, the rating systems change just to make comparisons impossible. A pair of 6v batteries isn't even close to the CCA's of a modern 12 v an a nominal 700 CCA's, and it is easy to aff

Not to be a disagreeable old cuss, but where can you find these 1000 cca batteries at? I live in Montana and have rarely seen any batteries with more than 700-800 cca and that is for the large truck

In Ohio, you can walk into any K-mart or Walmart any day and buy an Exide brand or Penske brand 975 CCA, 60-72 month guarantee battery for $69.95 or on sale for $59.95. Frankly, I don't care whose n

I'll check it out. Not for my MGs. But my 74 Toyota Landcruiser eats batteries and it doesn't live on anything less than 600-700 CCA. Only one Diehard has survived the test but its now 7 years old. T
