that wouldnt be in leu of relocating it to the back, and avoiding all the extra wiring and switches and regulations the NHRA has would it?
are you going to put any more metal around it to try and block the heat?

yessir, you are dead on correct.

w/the ron r FFIM, you lose the stock battery mounting point. after careful consideration, i decided against relocating to the back. my car is designed to be LEGAL for all forms of motorsports....and a LEGAL relocation is a big headache.

the battery is a metal jacketed one....i'm not too concerned about it, but i will be building a nice n pretty Al head shield.

The 680 has more then enough juice in my 1.5 year experience with it. Daily driven year round.

I'm not sitting in a parking lot for hours on end with my 500,000 watt stereo blasting with the motor off though. LOL

as long as it's secured and not murderized by the heat, i think that's a sweet place for it. that's a nice little battery. :)
