As promised, here are the pictures of the dual battery swap. Things to note: it only took me about two days to fabricate and paint. I used some old sheet metal and reused the longer positive wire for my cables. The vacuum sensor and voltage regulator were relocated sitting vertically on their former fender plate you see behind the batteries. Also, I had to make my own set of connectors for the new cable ends to tie them together with the other battery as they would not bolt together solidly. Spins up that IDI real fast now with solid connections and new batteries! All in all, this conversion was free!
Oh and as redneck as it sounds, the base plate that the batteries are bolted down to is fabricated out of an old snow shovel.
