battery relocation


Recommended Posts

Hey all, well my car is coming along nicely, its all in primer and i have repaired almost all the rust. I want to re locate my battery to the rear of the car. Possibly in the well where the spare usually goes. Is anyone familiar with what kind of box it would need to be in so i dont get in trouble if i go do a track day or autocross?? I know that nhra rules make you put the battery in a box, and i think it has to be vented to the outside. But i think those rules only work on a trunk type car, i am not sure what to do with a hatch style car, i can easily run a remote rod style shut off to a box with a switch on it. So does anyone have any experience with what i am going to need to do? I am not afraid to fabricate parts, i am an aircraft structural tech. I actually plan to build a box out of aluminum, i just need to know if it needs to be sealed and vented to the outside, or what. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dennis~
