    Will you have a removable panel in the floor for access? If so, does it interfere with the seat location? Since it's a dry cell battery you could mount it on it's side for easier access to the terminals if there's no hole in the floor. Sorta like the pic in post #299.

    Battery slides in from the back, connections are on the side towards the tranny. I don't worry about access other than installing and removal. If I need a jump I'll go straight to the on-off switch that will be on the fire wall or someplace that has easy access.
