[QUOTE="96dreamer, post: 16915638, member: 52560"] On the topic of weight savings I realized I never posted about the battery. After the lead acid died on me last year I ordered the Odyssey AGM925 (previously the PC925). I knew a lot of guys ran the PC680 with no issue but I wanted the extra capacity since this a a 95+% street car. Glad I did since I drove on just battery for a whole day essentially. Original battery 32.4 lbs [ATTACH type="full"]1794139[/ATTACH] New AGM28 25.5lbs [ATTACH type="full"]1794140[/ATTACH] The PC680 would have been an additional 7lbs lighter than the AGM 28 but I am happy with the tradeoff. The Odyssey is listed at a lower CCA but these AGM batteries behave a little differently than a lead acid. This one has a 900A output for the first 5 seconds when warm. This is more relatable to what this car will actually see. The few times it has been started on this battery it had no issue turning over. It combined with the new starter starts the car effortlessly. In the future maybe I won't be such a cheap ass and buck up for an antigravity battery at under 10lbs with jump start protection, [URL="https://antigravitybatteries.com/products/starter-batteries/automotive/ag-h5-rs/"]H5/Group-47 Lithium Car Battery[/URL] [/QUOTE]
