I am relocating my battery to my trunk for "reasons", I just have a couple questions reguarding wires and such...

How much wire do I need: 20ft
What Gauge wire, will speaker (amp wire) wire work: 3 Gauge Wire

How can I wire this in? I am thinking right behind the plate...

Do I need to run a wire from the Alternator to the switch or can i just run One wire straight back...

This is how I imagine it...

Cut off the stock metal postive clip, then soder or clamp them together...
Run the wire straight back thru the car... Hit the switch first then the Battery??? Neg just connect to the frame...
I will be buying a case in the future...

6 ga is plenty..frame ground is fine...1 wire...and your switch needs to be rated for the correct amps..

Hey man so I am guessing 100 Continuous Amps Rating, Each is good enough lol...

Thanks for the help I really appreciate it wanted to be sure to buy the right stuff...

250 amp continuous is what you need

make sure to shield the positive wire and solder all connections

where you putting the switch?

I was going to do this but after much research I decided the co$t and risk outweighed the benefits. (all the time to run the wire, drill and fit the box, all the electrical connections etc.) b/c if you mess up in one tiny spot you could have a serious electrical failure. the stupid switch is what broke the camel's back, making it visible for the track, etc.

hope this helps

Oh well not moving the battery is not an option because it has to be moved...
I was really wanting to use this cause the key comes out... Flaming River FR1002 - Flaming River Little Switch Battery Disconnects - Overview - SummitRacing.com

I was going to literally mount it behind the rear plate and just remove the plate when the car was dragged with the key in... So it is drag approved...

Why does it have to be moved?

Weight distribution I'm sure.

for a lowered stang with 20's??

 

[joeice14]

JEEEEZ!!! There is NO OTHER OPTION!!!
IT MUST BE MOVED....
I am making room for my 4cyl 100 hampster power engine I am putting in there... An the battery is blocking it....

[joeice14]
