kidding. anyway, made the move today. went with the summit trunk relocation kit. it worked fine except for the battery box. it was too big so i used one from the local auto parts store. mounted it below the floor in the trunk on the passenger side. i cut out the back right corner of the floor board and recessed the box. sticks up a few inches, but works great. ran the positive lead up under the floor board in the trunk, under the rear seat to the cross member over to the driver's side, up the driver's side under the carpet next to the door, under the dash and through the the driver's side firewall into the wheel well, next to the fuse box, into the engine bay, next to the clutch master cylinder line and straight to the starter. i ended up leaving the existing battery cables (one to ground the engine to the chassis, the second to run power from starter/alternator to the distribution block on the passenger side). i insulated the old battery terminal connectors and secured them w/ zip ties. now i have room for that custom 3-3 1/2" down pipe into the high flow cat. here she comes...
