Wrapping up the LS1/T56 swap in my 72, and am pondering an issue. Originally i planned on moving the battery to the right side, but the installation of the Vintage Air Sure-fit HVAC system changed that. i have the battery and the air intake on the left side with the filter mounted over the battery and about an inch of clearance between them. I am pretty sure i won't have any issue/s with this setup but i thought i'd throw it out there just for debate/conversation. Before anyone suggests, no i have zero plans of relocating the battery to the trunk.
