Default Any1 put the battery where the 92-95 civic batterys are??

It looks like there might be some room in that area. I'll be doing a turbo install soon and I don't feel like moving the battery to the trunk. I would have to do is move some of the main wiring, take out the PVC valve and charcoal can, and move the fuel pump I think? Has anyone done this?

exospeed used to make a kit that mounted your battery low and down by the cross member(same side, close to same spot just low), keeping the weight up front but getting you a bit of room for your piping. even without a kit, that might be something to consider fabing up.

You know you can buy small batteries that you probably could relocate elsewhere in the engine bay.

Yes we used to make a mount kit when we used to do B series installs locally. The mount kit included the 330 CC battery with brackets that mount to the frame and the crossmember.

We thought of bringing back the kit. if anyone is interested we can take an order. includes the Battery and the brackets to mount this on the Xmember.

Exospeed, I would appriciate an update as you promissed me almost a week ago that you would give me.

I have tried calling, with no answers, and left IM's on AIM and Honda-Tech with no responses.
