On my last wheeling outings we had a guy at the bottom of the mountain who needed to be winched up it. Me thinking my 8274-50 would be up for the task. Well it was but the single battery wasn't and I ended up killing my battery a few time and would have to wait for it to recharge and if I happened to kill the engine I would have to get a jump. Even with a 130 amp GM alt self regulating. I knew a dual battery system was in my future. I found two blemished Optimas for 30 bucks, a battery isolator for $49 and fabbed up the tray. They fit perfect. They are a little higher than the stock location but I did this so I wouldn't have to move the coil and igniter and still be able to get to the oil filter and distributer.
It mounts diectly to the old battery tray location without any cutting.
