[QUOTE="gckless, post: 8429807, member: 635756"] I can tell you right now what I plan on. I will be replacing the front battery with a Sears Diehard Platinum G34. Will be doing the big 3 under the hood, but it's going to be tricky because of the stock ammeter. I might have to do two runs of 4AWG to fit it through there. Will be running 1/0AWG to the rear for my positive, and then grounding in the back for my negative. I have a DC Power 270XP sitting here, but I need to get it recased, which I'm not going to do for a little while. If I need more, I will be adding ultracaps in the back. Of course, dimming is tricky. A .1V drop could give you dimming. Sometimes you just have to live with it. I think I heard placing one of those .5F-1F car audio caps inline with the headlights solves it, but I never tried that.
