Having the right battery cable is crucial for your restoration. It's just the right touch for your 1949, 1950, 1951, 1952, 1953 or 1954 Chevrolet restoration.
While you may or may not actually need to change your vintage car’s earlier 6-volt battery system, the 12-volt charging systems established themselves well in later years, becoming the industry standard in 1955. While the increase in horsepower is great, the 12-volt system can be especially beneficial if you’re having trouble starting your vehicle. The 12-volt system has superior compression ratios over the 6-volt, helping start your car when the engine is hot due to increased cranking power. 12-volt systems are also a necessity for many later accessories such as certain radios, air conditioning or halogen headlights, which cannot be run on 6-volt battery systems simply because they don’t have the power to run such accessories.
