I'm looking for a smaller battery that is track legal. I'm not to worried about holding a really long charge. Whenever the truck is at home it will be hooked up to the charger. Im not sure on amps and all that crap Im not to smart with that stuff. Stock battery is roughly 11 L x 8 h x 7-8 W. I need it to be thinner and shorter. Any clues. Im thinking something like this http://www.tirerack.com/accessories/detail.jsp?ID=28

At minimum I would use 500ca, more if its ever really cold when you start it.

The PC950 or PC1100 might be big enough.

 

Braille 1057 is what a buddy is recommending. He runs one in his turbo firehawk.
Im going with one to see how it works. Im not worried about cold to much any more (AZ bound). Plus the truck is slowly going the direction of weekend killer

 

I run a AGM battery I got for a motorcycle from advanced auto, it's rated at 330 CCA but I know the agm's usually pump out twice that cranking for a few seconds. I have not had any issues for the past year (knock on wood) even when I was home in Michigan during the winter and it was -10. My truck is a work truck so, not power everything, but it's been fine for me.. I bought some adapters to convert it so it bolts up to side terminals still.

 

Looking at the picture of brailles, its the exact same battery I have with adapters on it also, and fancy labeling.. Just saying

 

I used to be a dealer for odyssey and use there batteries in most everything. They are expensive but worth it IMO. I used a PC310 to start my truck a few times. Pretty impressive. They also don't have to be mounted upright.
