Positive: You can keep a couple of cold ones in there.

Negative: Kind of hard to get to while you are in the car.

Re: ICE BOX in place of battery

It is probably for use with an air to water intercooler for a vortech supercharger. It cools the intake charge after the S/C's compression has increased the temp.

If you have to ask, you probably don't need it. :p
