Good info Graham...thanks.

(edit) Steve, for years the early twin batteries 911 was plagued with rusted out battery boxes. Actiallu they were eaten out with battery acid. Sloshed out when cornering hard at autocrosses and track days. Keeping the acid level low, just covering the plates, helped. I kept mine good by frequently pulling batteries and cleaning the boxes with baking soda/water mix. then more cleaning...

Nevertheless, when spill proof AGM batteries arrived, I welcomed them with open arms.
