Dear subscribers,

I moved my battery location from the trunk in front of the firewall. I got a TISO550 with an AC compressor on it. The only empty spot that I
found on the firewall was behind the oil cooler. Based on Jeff's advice
I am using 2 12V batteries and stack them on top of each other. I made
an aluminum box that holds both batteries. The box has cut outs on all
sides for weight reduction and that air can get to the batteries.

Question: the exiting air of the oil cooler will hit the batteries
through the big cut out in my battery box. Is this a problem?

I could make a thin cover out of carbon and shield the battery. Is it necessary to run a cooling hose from the baffling to the battery
and cool it?

Thanks for your help

Ralf
