Light weight battery
Due to engine bay changes I'm going ti be a little short on space, at the moment I run just a normal battery, what small format batteries do you
guys run, it needs to be able to start a 2.0 zetec well.

I've got one of Russ Bost's LiON batteries, 1.4 kg and it starts a 3.2l M3 very easily and keeps a full charge over winter, very pleased
with it. You could definitely go smaller for a 2l zetec.

Nope, tried to order a LIPO20A and it wouldn't take the 5% discount. Since found the battery elsewhere.
