battery polarity
newly acquired 37 v8. i see that the negative is grounded and positive goes to starter. Manual says the other way around. Engine turns over with negative ground. Should I change it. Thanks for responses.

Re: battery polarity
The car came from the factory with a positive ground. You need to check all the connections, be careful if someone has changed the whole car over.

Re: battery polarity
Was informed on the HAMB only difference between a positive ground and negative ground system is the battery connections. Rest of components it makes no difference. Not sure it it is 100% correct, but have read the same elsewhere.
