Delco R59S battery question
 

Was the R59S battery used on the assembly line for the 67 68 or 69 Camaro? I know it was used on the 66 Chevelle. Any other assembly line applications? Thanks SYC.

The standard base battery for so many GM vehicles,Buick-Olds-Pontiacs-GMC,it's easier to list just Chevrolets.

Hi, Thanks for the info. I thought with the S behind the number was a heavy duty option battery. I guess I thought wrong. Thanks guys.

Rick,
Those applications use the R59, not the R59S.
The only R59S applications per the Delco book: 1968-69 Corvette and a couple of 1970 Pontiac 455's.

Nope, you are correct. It has 13/cell instead of R59's 11/cell. Just not many applications.

Some of those GM brands I listed came with the R59S as well as the R59,but not all.
