i'm going around in circles with this on the internet.

The present battery is an 096 and I am looking to change it for a lithium equivalent .

Is there anything out there that provides a comparison chart or such like?

Or, can anyone let me know which specific lithium battery could be fitted as an alternative to the present lead acid battery?

Thanks

Have a look at the deadweight industries batteries. Iirc, the Togue 500 is an 096 comparable.

I can’t think of much better ways to remove weight high up in the car?

A light breakfast, perhaps.

Yes, but you can do that as well.

Actually, I don't eat breakfast.

That might have the opposite effect.

Lots of prunes or a dose of food poisoning can do wonders for your lap times!

Any photos?

No videos, please.

What size hole did you drill into the floorpan?

Might be onto something here - tapping into the mass collective of the pistonheaders universe.
