Default Re: relocating battery

I moved mine! Haven't had a chance to run it yet, and I basically have all new running gear, so I won't be able to tell if there's a difference. I sure hope like hell there is, $4K in the new engine, $3K in the new tranny. It BETTER be faster! LOL

Don't think of it as moving 30 lbs. Think of it as moving 60 lbs. Taking 30 OFF the front, and ADDING 30 right above your axle. One other thing to keep in mind, if you have a hatch you'll need a sealed battery box. I use the blue Moroso one, works great. You'll also need a rear mounted disconnect, and wired properly so that your alternator doesn't keep the car running when you throw the kill switch.

Is it worth it? Might be more of a pain on day-to-day type stuff, than the good things you'll get at the track.

It's worth it to me just to get it out of the engine bay.
