By the way, being that we are talking about Braile batteries and such. I shaved 3 Lbs just with an aluminum strand main battery cable all the way from the firewall to the rear. It does connect at a junction box at the firewall and a copper cable from there on to the starter. Clean, tight grounds are a must. I have five slim grounds throughout the car.
Sounds like a plan for me too. Currently, I have the Braille up front running to the cut-off switch by the shifter (morse cable to rear push/pull). That aluminum cable could be the ticket to put the battery in the rear and take the 21# off the nose.
While researching batteries, I yanked the previous owners wiring slop out from the rear mounted, get this- (2) marine batteries at 70# each! I weighed the 2 ga. wire running up to the front at 8.5 #. I'd assume the aluminum wire would be about half of that?
Yes sir, you must have ground buss-bars along the entire route as well.
