[Shotimes] Battery Terminal Clamps?

[Kevin & Cheryl Airth]

Chris:
 You can change the cables but the are kind of expensive and I don't know if
they are still available or not? Here is what I did on both my 93 SHO's. The
factory cable has a cast lead terminal clamp. After many tighten and loosen
cycles, the lead cracked and I could no longer get a good connection. I
covered the engine with a thick blanket and used a propane torch to melt off
the factory ends. This left just a copper cable stub end. I used clamp on
connectors. This has the draw back of another connection for corrosion but I
keep them clean and they are easy to get at!!
