DIY CUSTOM Battery Relocation!
Nice setup. I did something similar but I put mine near the firewall.

I like that setup! What did you use to mount it on the ground stud? (the bracket and black piece) Mine is just electrical taped in a ball and tucked...ghetto style.
Still havent permanetly mounted my cables under the hood because I have been trying to think of a cleaner way to mount it... This looks great, much better than by the fuse box like what I have now... I will be looking into mounting mine against the firewall now, thanks 
Yeah I zip tied Mine in a bundle behind the I/C piping about 3" from any metal & stuck the plastic cap back on it. After I do my EGR delete this weekend Ill try to find a nice spot hidden.
I also see that most of you guys used the stock terminal/b+ junction under the hood... I changed mine... hard to see past the nest but its right by the ts trans mount..
When I mount it to the fire wall, I may have to mount it on its side due to wires comming out the top and bottom... not to mention hobb switch and cdi box power supply mounted on the side aswell... dammit... so many power wires under the hood lol

The nice thing about relocating it here was that I was able to clean up alot of the wiring. By rerouting it to this part of the firewall I was able to shorten alot of wires that are normally redundantely snaked around to extend in the oem location. I shortened lengths and used larger gauge wiring. Win win imo.
Thanks. Its still a work in progress. I want to get a cover for it. I also need to make sure it clears everything like the vac booster line, intake manifold, etc.

I plan on using an audio fuse block in the engine compartment to connect all the cables with fuses and get rid of that factory top mount fuse thingy..
I Took apart the Positive terminal & attached the new copper ring end to it. the negative terminal was used as just another ground. Mine is 100% no hack n slash everything looks pretty!
I did mine like this because I am cleaning up the engine bay wiring. I was able to reroute all the loomed harness wires away from the shifter cables. The only wiring I have on the trans is the one for the starter, and a ground iirc.
