There's no minimum on the front batteries. It's just that a rear battery can't be any bigger.
It's supposed to be for the electric water pump and fan, but they know guys are gonna parallel them together to start the car off them too.
Years ago, we used lawn tractor batteries that would start a SBC just fine, but now with the MSDs and electric cooling devices, they're not gonna cut it.
