if you have stock cams and valves then your fine but if you have aftermarket cams you will need a tune.

Yuasa Battery "ytx20l-bs" and some trimming of the battery tray is what I did since i didnt want to relocate the battery.
The battery I had in the car weighed 31lbs, the yuasa weighs 15lbs. The battery is pretty dependable considering the one I have, came back from the dead out of a Rhino of some sort. There is also a slightly bigger one(17lbs) with more cold crank amps that will fit sideways in the battery tray
Also was able to turn the battery and trim the tray to help extract a little heat and clean up the engine bay some. Makes it a little easier to get to headers if you need to for any reason. Here are a couple pics.

All he did was cut it in half, turned the battery side ways moved the post over to secure the strap, im sure drilled a hole for that. And the box still mounts to the car using the factory bolts looks like. Great job i must say!

YUP! But thanks.
Also drilled two holes in the car underneath where the strap screws down so the screws can tighten.
I will take it out tonight and get a couple more pics and post a thread in Tech so I dont clutter this one up more. lol

Pture please

I want to take off the stock axle tube weights, but can not locate them. I have looked under the car, but have found nothing. If anyone has a picture of what I am looking for I would be most grateful. I must be overlooking it as I bought this car bone stock.

I am new here and I ran a search on this thread, found what I was looking for, but it has been edited and the picture is no longer attached to the post on this thread.
