If you do relocate the battery towards the rear..I suggest useing a ford style solinoid by the battery. run a 2/0 cable from the + battery to the solinoid..then a 2/0 to the starter. Run a # 6 cable from the unswitched side of the solinoid to power the rest of your system. Jump the starter solinoid from the small "s" terminal to the larger 2/0 terminal. reroute the original"s" wire to the "s" terminal on the ford solinoid. This system works very well. It really improved my whole electrical system..also makes turning over my 12-1 engine easy as can be.
