Default New type of Battery

A buddy of mine just sent me a link to a battery that has 2100 Cranking Amps!
Just imagine having two of them in your Diesel, No idea what they cost but imagine them to be worth a few

Wouldn't even need two at that point, it'd clear up a lot of room under the hood for a compound setup...

Isn't that the truth! I swapped batter and air filter locations, bought gel batteries, and turned the passenger battery on it's side for clearance. Did a quick search for the price....

$1850!!!!

If it was guaranteed for life, I may spring for one. Ah's could use some improving though.

But you wont get that kind of CA's out of any other one. Maybe two, still costing less, but the "cool factor even though I'm broke now" feature won't be there. Haha

It doesn't look like $1800... it looks like a plain old battery. You can buy another turbo for that price for crying out loud, I'd rather have more air flow than CCA's... haha
