Not sure about Odyssey but Optima does not make a 12 volt battery that fits in the trays for a BN1/BN2/ BN6 or BN7.

Just get two 12V gel batteries and hook them up in "parallel".

They don't leak and hold a charge for a long time.

Try Optima or Odyssey brands.

The last time I was in St. Thomas U.S. Virgin Islands, they still drove on the left hand side of the road and the rental cars were left had drive. It was always a challenge diving a rental and had to realy think about it at intersections and especially roundabouts. I'm not sure about the other U.S. Virgin Islands, St Croix and St. John. I would imagine they are the same along with the British Virgin Islands.

      Before WWII, and some even after, many if not most French cars      were RHD because they thaught it safer to enter/exit the car on      the kerb side. They have driven on the right side of the road at      least since Napoleontic times.

In the case of purpose built road racing?cars like Bugatti,        Ferrari & even Chapparal (to name only a few), it is my        understanding that most were built as RH drive because the        majority of the road racing tracks were run clockwise & RH        drive placed the driver on the inside of the majority of the        turns. The driver's weigh on the inside of the turn helps reduce        roll & also makes it easier for the driver to precisely clip        the apex. Coincidently, RH drive also places the driver closer        to the photographer on the majority of turns, if the        photographer is on the inside of the track.

No actual research was conducted during the preparation of        this.

Hello

?

Yes that is correct there                are more people in countries that drive on the right.                However it reminds me of a Margaret Thatcher quote:-

?

?If it is once again one                against forty-eight, then I am very sorry for the                forty-eight.?

?

Interestingly all period                Bugattis made and Ferrari competition sports cars of the                ?40s, ?50s and ?60s were RHD.

?

Also far more relevant is                that 92% of all Austin-Healeys were made in LHD but only                require about a week?s work to convert.

Ditto.  It's the back bolt of the heater valve.  There should also be a
similar clip but with a larger hole that goes under the exposed nut on the
rear head stud.

Anyone have a source for 6V batteries suitable for use in 100s (i.e.
that will fit in the stock battery tray and bracket)?? I'm currently
using a couple Interstate batteries, and Interstates are now made in
Mexico with attendant quality issues.
