Cold cranking Amps (CCA) and the 4.0 v6

[lotust]

Auto zone recomends a 600-750 CCA battery. I want to do a dual battery setup. Would it be wise to get 2 batteries with a little less CCA? I want to run them like this setup. But need the clearence of a smaller batery. I cant fork over 400$ for yellow tops at this time. But for 140$ I can get 2 duralast batteries that have the same warenty (3 year free replacement)




here is how I want to mount them.

lol you're all over the place today.

I assume with the dual battery setup you want more power. If this is true why would you do two batteries that together have just a bit more than your stock?

I would either put the largest battery you can fit under the hood, or the TWO largest batteries.

I agree. I guess I will just have to experiment a bit to see what I can fit.

EDit: im going camping for 4 days. Im trying to be prepared :-)

just make sure you know what your doing when you wire them, not to wire them in series, or you'll fry your shit.
