Do all Ford staters and ignitions use the fender mounted stater soleniods? On my dads T-Bucket I was going to mount the sloenoid under the seat with the battery and fuse box.Can you guys think of any reasons not to do this,or any idea's. ------------------ SCOOP 2.26 60'S 14.9 @ 90.86MPH 65 coupe,351w,C4,Big Boss 429 hood scoop,8" 3.40 TracLoc. https://mustangsandmore.com/ubb/Fastymz.html

I don't think the Optima battery outgasses, does it? ------------------ '70 Mustang Mach 1 - '72 Mustang Sprint - '94 F-150 Please remember our sponsors, Mustangs Plus, NPD, Osborn Reproductions, MyFordPerformance.com, and FordRamAir.com

The optima is completely sealed and self-contained. No outgassing! This battery is also great in trunks and in the battery boxes under the floorboards... Daniel
