It'll certainly be heavier.“I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to make an a** of yourself.”

Drift car and you want to put the battery in the boot?
Often only the ends are tinned, tinning can have positive results and negative ones.
Sometimes the tinning prevents a good connection at the terminals. A smear of vaseline prevents corrosion. Not so much of an issue these days though.
The only time ive seen corrosion on a modern cars battery terminal is where the contacts had rusted or the terminal was loose.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -

Consider arc welding cable, very flexible and durable.
Do your own calculation.... https://www.amazon.co.uk/Welding-Cable-Battery-Flexible-Welder/dp/B00E4YDKTQ/ref=sr_1_22?ie=UTF8&qid=1482353122&sr=8-22&keywords=welding+cableDon’t be a can’t, be a can.0 -
Sticking a battery in the boot brings on the issue of hydrogen being produced as its charged. You dont need a battery tray you need need a sealed battery box thats vented outside the vehicle.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0
