How much was that battery? Are they good enough for daily driven car?
That one was around $140 shipped, it has the metal jacket and the brass terminals.
Normal bare is around $100-110

Size is awesome 15lbs, 7x7x3, dry cell so you can mount it anyway.

Got stuff from longacre and welding supply. Got my battery hold down but forgot it at work :(

Battery shut off switch, through firewall posts, jump posts, battery posts, and 1/0 gauge welding wire.
