Capacitor

as long as you disconnect the battery and don't drill into your engine block your pretty safe on not messing anything up. It's basically undoing some nuts, putting on some terminals and tightening them back down with the acceptation of drilling one hole.

where am i drilling this one hole at? and do i have to buy a new battery? or can i use my stock one? if not what type of battery is suggested?

One more time, in case you missed it the first time...this should help you out quite a bit for the big three.

You'll need a DMM...can get one anywhere. I have a craftsman one that I got at sears and it's great

how much would a new battery be anyway if i decided to replace it just for the hell of it? and any specific brands? names?

 

[hockeytoker 10+ year member]

depends on how big of a batt u can fit under the hood. the one in my sig under soon to come cost 150 (not shipped)

the one hole you need to drill is doing your batt neg. to chassis. unless you use one of the factory ground spots, which your gonna want to grind/sand down to bare metal the factory generally just uses a self tapping screw and leaves it at that.

where can i go to find out if a battery will fit? and would they have these kind of batteries at your typical auto parts store? O'reillys, Autozone, Advance Autos etc..?

Honestly man, I'm getting the impression that you really really really don't know much about any of this stuff. You really REALLY need to look around on the forums a bit and do some research yourself. These forums are broken down into sections for a reason. In each section there is a TON of great knowledge about that specific topic.

Just take your time, read the forums and learn. After a bit, come back with the questions. This thread is going to get crazy big with us spoon feeding you every step of the way.

Either way...I'm done...I wish you the best of luck and really encourage you to read the forums a bit.
