Default battery post on 1972

Were the posts for the battery on a 1972 top or side mounted?

The Corvette switched to side mount terminals around SN 22000 in 1969. In 1970, the position of the battery was switched so that the terminals were on the back of the battery. This gave more room to attach the cables.
