12V racing battery recommendations

[Dragsinger]

This is a subject on which I have experience and thoughts. With my super stocker and my bracket builds, 16 volts has been my choice for a few years.

However, I am softening with that stance and now think a conventional, lead-acid, or AGM 12 volt deep cycle is an overall excellent choice.

In my opinion, the latest, high tech batteries are not yet completely developed to be 100% dependable in the later rounds that come close together when charging time has been little to none..

The Camaro I am building today will have a 27 series, lead-acid, deep cycle battery. It will cost about $110.00, run the car all day, but carries the penalty of weighing 50 pounds. It is trunk mounted and in this situation, the weight is an advantage.
