Affordable batteries?

[2Dcore 10+ year member]

First off i hope i posted this in the correct area, if not sorry! anyways, I'm gathering all my stuff to rebuild the van and i'm stumped on what batteries are the best for the money. i'm going to need enough to power 10k i'm going to be getting the alt first but what is the best bang for the buck? i can't afford a bunch of XS or Kinetic so any suggestion on brand, model,where to get and price if you know that would be great. Somebody said i'd get away with 8 yellow tops. What you think? Thanks for any help.

Last time I was in there I wanna say they were under $120 for the big ones. I know they are the cheapest for the size that's any good. Other members could probably contribute more.
