Anyone done one yet? I am about to have to do this and would like any tips before I start buying and moving stuff around. Thanks.

any reason for moving the battery? I've got the passenger side battery setup since my new underhood fuse box will be near the heater box and running the CAI on the driver side (relocating charcoal canister).

Because a turbo resides in that spot now. LOL. The battery is just kinda in there.

very good reason

I'd just skip the "kits" and assemble one yourself. I would get some 2ga welding wire and grab some ends from ebay and call it a day. Grab a gel cell battery like an odyssey or optima and you wont have to worry about gasses in the hatch

well I kept mine on the driverside at first since I had a 89 tpi car but when I installed the slp dual cold air I put it in the left rear where the glovebox is, simply open the door and you have your connections right there vs having to remove the cover

no different than any other motor swapping the battery in the rear, make sure to have a master cut off switch if you go to the track ever.

How important is it to have a sealed or vented battery in the trunk?

On the drivers side (where mine is mounted) there is a drain hole, and air flow from the door vent.

I don't care about racing just inspection/safety. I have a fuse block near the battery in case of a short.

I have a battery cut off switch and a extra tail light with the hole cut out for it. Just was wondering how to route the wires and such from the battery in the trunk.

old corvettes had them behind the drivers seat from the factory. Gases can be released from that battery while charging which is the reason vented/sealed ones are typically required.

Run a ground to the chassis, add a few thick chassis grounds up front from the engine to the frame rail as well. Then run your positive down the side of the car all the way to the starter. Not much to it, there are tons of diagrams online for it. Your alternator needs to run directly to the battery and your chassis power come off that master switch so when it's flipped the car electronics will all lose power.

I'm prob just over thinking all of it. My brain is very drained from this build as a whole and pockets even more. lol. I got the battery to starter alternator to battery battery to ground and 2 big *** ground straps. Confused on the master switch?

i'm thinking about have my battery mounted in the rear driverside glove box area does anyone have any pictures of there setups in this location
