Best light weight battery for A DD?

[Flcracker]

What lightweight batteries are you all using? I would love to take some weight off the nose. Anyone out there using the antigravity battery on their DD? How's it working out for you?

 

[Torchy]

Yep AG here and works great.

I daily drive with an AntiGravity battery. No issues so far.

 

[Flcracker]

Wow that's awesome! Could you guys actually feel any difference with that much weight being removed? Also I'm wondering if the antigravity battery will work with my set up? I have a VMP duel Fan heat exchanger and a TVS. How much weight did u save, and which anti-gravity battery do you have? Thank U Big Time!!

What trays are you guys using to run these?

You probably won't feel the 10-20lbs you're saving. Weight savings are very much an "it all adds up" kind of thing.

Any brand recommendations? Cell size for our cars?

There's a fab guy that makes the hold downs for the smaller batteries for our cars. No drilling or cutting and uses stock tray with stock wedge. We added a floating heat shield on mine for down pipe heat

Op you'll want the YTX12-24

Still putting it back together in these

I think that the weight savings might be more substantial if I go with the YTX 12–24 Antigravity battery which only weighs 5 pounds.

Thank you Torchy!

I have a BOSH battery which weighs 33 pounds, so I would be saving 28 pounds if I go with the antigravity battery. I'm thinking about doing the battery, removing the AC which I never use, and installing a lightweight radiator support.

If you delete the swaybar with the lightweight radiator support, it shaves a ton of weight off.

Anybody ever use a Dyna-Batt?

I'm concerned that removing the swaybar will cause the front of the car to float again. When the TVS blower went on my car started to kind of float a bit at higher speeds, so I bought a beefier sway bar which solved the issue.
