Default I need a battery box

Does anyone have one laying around ? It needs to be a sealed box, but other than that it doesnt really matter what kind it is.

Thanks
Chris

Yea i looked at oriellys and autozone, and they have the plastic ones. They only problem is that they dont seal, so you they dont pass NHRA tech.

I think they approved the optima style batteries without a sealed box. Im not sure though, might want to look into it.
