Battery Relocation

dgt_mustang · Dec 20, 2007

what you guys think about the battery relocation kit?

Steeda Battery Relocation Kit

I'm not gonna get it right now, but do you think its worth the money? or should i fabricate my own if it makes enough sense?

and it is out of stock
go look at sumit racing they have some starting at a little less then $80

but are they worth it? would it make sense to relocate the battery?

HMUSN · Dec 20, 2007

why do you need one?

whitemustang02 · Dec 20, 2007

they help with weight distrabution a little and give u more room in the engien bay
deff. not worth $200+

dgt_mustang · Dec 20, 2007

ok, thats all i wanted to know, is if they were worth it. for a unique thing to have yea, but otherwise, nothing special

there is really no reason to get that if its not needed. you dont need anymore room in your engine bay so i dont think its worth it

Agreed I’m planning on doing one but that is because I want to do a windstar swap so then I am gana relocate my coolant overflow tank to were the battery was so that I have more room to run my cai

unfochenetaly probaly wont be till mid summer (because i need more mony so i can do the whole top end of the moter at the same time)

unless you go to the track often its not worth it
it DOES help at the track though. transfering like 25-35lbs

El_Cangri · Dec 21, 2007

i think u dont need it unless

1) u go at track too much
2) u need space on the engine bay

MWWarlord · Dec 21, 2007

It could be worth it to make room as you said. Otherwise it's not.

Hourofpain · Dec 21, 2007

i think its kinda cool for 1
two
its a good what 20 pounds total your moving to the back

id do it maybe
Id make the kit myself though
get some steel plates go to a friends house and weld it there

but
Only downside is decreased trunk space.
its also cool

Cause if you need to disconnect the battery in a hury say in case of a fire or something you can go to the back.

Any front weight that can be transferred to the back of the car to give it a better balance is a good mod. I believe the weight distribution for the SN95 mustangs is around 57/42 (front/rear). THIS IS BAD!!! You want a weight distribution idealy of close to if not 50/50. Any weight that can be moved to the rear SHOULD be in my eyes. Power means nothing if your car cant handle it.

:exactly

Summit, for about half the price. 60lbs over that right rear tire is a good thing, if your spinnning it.
