install help

[LuvnThatBass 10+ year member]

i know only a little about batteries and electrical systems. but here is what i got. i have a 2000 dodge dakota and its got a 117 amp stock alt, and a pretty big battery (but it is stock and wet celled), but my gauge on my truck is always at 14.4 (nothing installed in my truck yet)

but here is my question, i have a yellow top that is for an integra (650 CA). would it be smart to put this under my hood, or to have it in back with my HD3c12 running off 2000wrms?? also, i want to get a big kinetic battery (hc2400 probably) and was wondering if i were to put the hc2400 under the hood with the yellow top in back, would this be a good route?? or should i just sell the yellowtop and replace the stock battery with the kinetik??

any other advice is welcome. i just want the best flow of current with no voltage drop (and i will obviously do the big 3)

Most stock batteries will do but if the 2400 will fit under the hood go for that with the YT in the back and you should be good.
