I am wanting to put my Battery in the bed of my truck, I was reading the NHRA rules about this and wasn't pleased at what I read, How many of you guys have moved your Battery without doing the cut off switch and have you had any problems with TECH?

RULES:
Any car with a relocated battery must be equipped with a master electrical cutoff, capable of stopping all electrical functions including ignition (must shut the engine off, as well as fuel pumps, etc.). The switch must be located on the rear of the vehicle, with the "off" position clearly marked. If the switch is of a "push / pull" type, then "push" must be the motion that shuts off the switch, and plastic or "keyed" typed switches are prohibited. Also, the battery must be completely sealed from the driver and/or driver compartment. This means a metal bulkhead must separate the trunk from the driver compartment, or the battery must be located in a sealed, metal box constructed of minimum .024 inch steel or .032 inch aluminum, or in an NHRA accepted plastic box. In cars with a conventional trunk, metal can simply be installed behind the rear seat and under the package tray to effectively seal the battery off from the driver. In a hatchback type vehicle the battery box is usually the easiest solution, since the alternative is to fabricate a bulkhead which seals to the hatch when closed. At present, Moroso is the only company which offers an NHRA accepted plastic battery box, part number 74050.

mine is relocated but i did mine under the bed. if you search youll find pics of mine

 

I put my in the bed, up in the front corner on the pass side. Used an aluminum battery box from Speedway Motors and bolted it down. The bed being seperate from the cab and away from the actual driver compartment addresses some of the concerns of those rules. In case of a roll over they don't want the battery becoming a missle inside the vehicle.
