100Ah battery? You sure don't want to run out of battery power, do you?  Anyway, looks like a decent piece of work you did there!

Thanks  Two years ago my Delco battery died, I couldn´t start and a riced out VW(!) Corrado(!!) had to help me out.  At this moment I decided that this should not happen anymore...

I'd like one if you are willing to hook me up. I could just add that cost on top of the final cost for the roll bar. Let me know.

What's the Ah-rating? Is it 920/12 ~= 75Ah?

Bruce, is that truck batteries??? The largest A-rating I've seen on batteries at ATU was in the range of 200-350A ... (at up to 72Ah) - and some double-size truck batteries with 480A or so ... !????

Are you referring to the red or green lid/top battery. Reason I am asking Is because TIP TOP up in Wurzberg has the battery I think your talking about. I don't know details but will find out if I am even close to what your talking about.

Chris, on your battery box, how did you mount it? Did you have to drop the gas tank?
I would rather bolt mine in rather than weld it, and I haven't really looked between the gas tank and the bottom of the trunk to see the room I have to work with.
And, on your sump/vent for the battery, how did you run the line?
