A couple of things...1. In order to be NHRA legal, the hold down rods have to be mounted (welded to) or go thru the frame rails. 2. If you use a dry cell like an Optima or the Interstate Battery equivalent, you don't need a box. You can buy the number 1 cable at any Napa or Thrifty supply house. Easiest under the car along the frame rails with cable tie downs. Take the negative side to the frame rail as well. Do not just bolt it to the body. Not a good ground.
