Saturday, February 23, 2008 - 21:13 GMT Good deal. Keep all the wire you replace. You'll kick yourself when you need it for something else a year from now.

Saturday, February 23, 2008 - 22:44 GMT I was once told to try and have as many cranking amps as you plan on watts. The hc2400 has 2600 cranking amps but between that and your batt up front I think you would be fine.
