Wrightpayne Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Hi,I currently have a dry sump system with a shortened footwell and easyclean tank. I removed the heater and put a gel battery on the bulkhead bolted to the heater blanking plate. IIRC its a PVR 25. I'm planning to use the car a bit more with my son and the heater might need to go back in.What is the suggested location for the battery with a sortened footwell and heater?RegardsIan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Jonathan Kay Posted February 13, 2015 Member Share Posted February 13, 2015 Could you add a photo?JonathanPS: I don't think the PVR 25 is a gel battery... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted February 13, 2015 Author Share Posted February 13, 2015 its the powervamp race battery - smaller and lighter than the banner original. Pretty sure gel technology. Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlesElliott Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I have the bracket (and battery) at the end of the shortened passenger footwell. In a race chassis, the battery is normally in this location anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve T Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 HiI have the same Easiclean tank and heater and my PVR25 bracket is fixed to the back of the heater box, there is pleanty of room there for it but I have an SV so maybe there is more room than on S3 ?

Mavic82 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Ian, welcome me to come round the corner and see mine. Fitted the same battery at the end of the passenger footwell sitting upright. Ie inside the car. Mrs Mavic now has a nice foot rest. I to have a short footwell and DS tank. Keeps the weight nice and low and the battery clean.rgds Guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrightpayne Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Steve,i think I have a picture of yours in the DS install guide you put together. The bulky k series loom runs in front of the heater on my car so may need to re route if I put it there. Guy - that would be good. YHM ( or will have later !)Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavic82 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Usually considered to be negative. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grubbster Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Mine is upright, in the powervamp ali mount, fixed to the scuttle panel next to the heater, in front of the passenger. Do you have something else there? I moved the interia switch to the drivers side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
