Has anyone relocated their battery to the trunk? if so can you take some pics where you did and tell me how you bolted your box to the body? thanks.

 

I just bolted the hold down to the trunk pan. Not really much to it. I put it on the drivers side to avoid the gas tank.

 

shouldnt the box be sealed though? becasue dont batteries release gas as they are used? i dont think you want that crap in ur car

 

I like the battery box but I think you might have a point...

 

It's a gell filled sealed battery. Not acid! Can be mounted upside down if needed to be.

 

Cool... Where did ya buy that battery...

 

I bought it from out Interstate battery supplier. I'm sure you can get them from Summit or the like. They are $$$ though. Like around $120.00

I kinda guessed they would be a bit pricey but since i have played with the idea of relocating my battery this is all good stuff to know...

 

Make sure you put an external cutoff switch if you plan on racing at the track. Also it's best to put on the passenger side for traction. In a hatchback you are also required to have a firewall between the passenger compartment and the hatch area if you don't put the battery in a sealed box.

 

where do you get that battery mount? with the mustang cut out. thats awesome... i have the same battery.. optima red top.. i have the whole kit with the sealed box and all that from summit, but i like that one better. how much is it and where can i get it?
