Sal,

I too am planning to relocate the battery this winter. I plan to use a custom tray using angle steel to fit the batteries I opt for. I saw the G35 post by rokndad and found them nice however it sounds like they require fluid fill (electrolyte) and they only carry 500cca. I am considering the use of Optima 6V @ 800cca since they are totally sealed and less prone to outgas. I worry the acidic gasses will damage my seats which I want to avoid.

The Rebat label would be really cool. Count me in for one...... The Optimas are round so I plan to fashion an aluminum face/ends and paint it flat black. That should give the appearance of a box/correct shape. The tops will be wrong but a reasonable vintage look should result regardless.
