That's a huge battery for a Spec Box. It weighs over 26lbs, puts weight high up in a bad spot. Most guys in TX & CO run a DEKA ETX14 or ETX12 which can be bought for $60 and weigh 12 or 10lbs respectively.

Do yourself a favor and take this opportunity to save 16lbs of weight and some cash.

Edit: Pull the cutoff switch when you park the car and you never have to worry about a dead battery.
