Ok, I started the season with 3 beautiful MG sized batteries...One went to the 61 MGA...
Then the trouble started and the TR6's phantom short circuit drained it's own battery and killed one of my MG batteries....So once I fixed the TR6 short I put in my last MG battery and then idioticly forgot to swap it back out once the original TR battery was charged...Now the TR is in the shop, and i need a battery to get the LE started tomorrow. I am wondering if the TR battery will fit in the B, so if someone would be so kinda as to provide the measurements for a MGB battery box I could measure the battery and determine whether or not I need to purchase a new one, or if the TR battery will fit.

Thanks
 
how do you determine what group a battery is?
 
Think it is cast and printed on the side or top.
 
Thanks...I'll remember that for next time.....I actually got the bigger TR battery to fit pretty nicely into the B, with a bit of struggle of course.
