Battery Cable Terminal Connector

[rocknrod]

Anyone have a source for the offset battery cable lug connector terminal on my Mustang shown in the photo? Not the cable, I can find those. I can find offset elbow type, bent, straight etc. But this shape is a tough one. Anyone have a source?

Maybe get a straight one and bend it in a vise?

It'd have to be pretty long straight one. Never found one that long.

You can also just go get a new terminal and wire it up. I mean that offset is just to give you room for the bolt. A different terminal can be had for less than $20. You can spend up to $40 for a "fancy" one.

I considered that, with the battery terminal being lowered on these batteries it's difficult to find one that works. Suggestion?
I thought of a military terminal but I would need to change the battery to flat top unit. Not sure how that would work for clearance.

Heck I can't do that either since the starter cable is crimped to the same battery terminal.

The cables look near brand new. What are you trying to fix?

The cables. I want to run the Alt cable so it doesn't run across top of the engine.
