Default Lingenfelter Battery Relocation Kit

Who has a kit they'll sell or mounting brackets they'll sell, or brackets they'll rent me so I can make my own?

Someone has one they haven't used, I know it. So, who's got it?!

I bought the Taylor kit below, some 00 cable and a heavy duty marine disconnect switch and mounted the box in the rear center well.

https://www.summitracing.com/int/par...8201/overview/

I fabbed and painted a custom mounting plate from some aluminum I picked up at a scrap yard. I replaced the allthread and hardware in the Taylor kit with heavy duty stuff.




Used HD mastic to seal the mounting holes in the well, both inside and outside.


Fabbed some clamping brackets to secure the mounting plate.




Ran the positive cable from the engine bay through the cabin to the rear. I used HD loom to protect it where needed..




Mounted the box and installed the battery. The vent tube goes out the bottom of the well and the negative cable through the other side to the frame. Both holes have grommets/seals. This is as far as I got - need to do the final switch mount and cable hookup.

Weight transfer to rear and making room for a catch can, a vacuum block and a fuel pressure regulator in the battery bay for my setup. Btw, the battery in my C7 is in the rear by design.
