just an Optima Red Top, they are like 5-10 lbs lighter. I need to move it to the spare tire well, already have an 0/1 gauge cable.

I'm seeing a lot of your product in this thread already, Svede...

Nobody wants to see my engine bay. Daily driver duty has it looking pretty dirty right about now. Gave the valve covers a good cleaning last week, and sand-blasted and re-sprayed my battery tray the other day. Got a DD now so it'll be looking "fresh" soon. Gotta' tear a few things apart for the next mod anyways...

I know. We'd probably see a lot more if production could ever catch up with demand. It's kind of weird seeing something you cooked up in your basement being used all over the world. IMHO (and in many others) it's the best performing/most versatile intake and it doesn't need a new filter or rubber foam pieces to look good.

Ok, I had a idea that was the one. Is there a kit for the rear mount for battery? or what supplies do I need. I know there are brackets, but far as wiring. What type of things?

I would post if I had a Svede, but my Vararam looks crappy. Since I see a lot of VR and Svede's in here, I have a quick thread jack question. I removed my radiator shroud and tossed it (did not cut it well). Is this hurting flow to my VR filter? I can't wait to get a Svede.

I'm just going to buy a battery box from Summit racing, a positive post for the front, and a cutoff switch for the rear and bolt it down through the floor of the spare tire well.

Absolutely. If I wasn't planning on going the route of a fully "functioning" shaker I would have ordered from you a while ago.
Congrats on an awesome product, Jerry.

There is a kit sold through someone, but it's just as easy to make your own.
