Battery Relocation?

I'm looking at one of these ebay fmics...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...sPageName=WDVW

and it got me thinking about battery relocation even if just for better weight distribution. To relocate, is it basically just the same gauge wire and mounting hardware or is there more to it?

Easy, get some terminals, maybe a distribution block and some 0 gauge wire.

Actually I'm looking into the Walmart Everstart batteries; I read on NASIOC that Walmart sells for $25 a lawn tractor battery with adequate amperage ratings so I'm gonna check that out soon.

Do you know what IC that is a replica of?

Most FMIC's don't require the need to remove/replace the battery.
