    The guys are right, one big battery is better. Two are only as good as the poorest one, and the extra connections are a headache. If space makes it necessary, pay special attention to all connections, keep everything bright and shiny.

    Guys, thinks for the info...I have a 468 BB and it seems to be a little
    hard to start when it's hot, plus the electric fan, and fuel pump has a
    draw on it. I am currently using a long Interstate, don't even know the
    amp size, but I think you have convinced me to stick with just one battery
    to eliminate weight and confusion....rdobbs
