Battery seepage
hi folks I understand we ideally use sealed top starter batteries in our
c5's due to ecm located directly below it. Has someone thought of/used
a protection umbrella for this? How about aluminum foil, plastic spray
coating? I realize we still need to constantly monitor the battery for
cracks etc. Even opti's can break. any ideas? thx
ps: did gm change location for the 6's,7's?

Get yourself an acid glass mat (AGM) battery and call it a day.

Best bet and they last forever if you keep the car on a tender when it's in the garage.
