I thought I saw one on there at one time but maybe I'm wrong. If you're okay with spending optima kind of money, look at north star batteries. The one for our rigs has the highest cca and reserve capacity I've found to date, without shelling out stupid money for a lithium battery of course.

I currently have a diehard platinum agm with 880cca but it's been reading low at the top post with a side post issue reading extremely low. I don't mind spending the money for quality. My truck is currently in the shop so I'll have to wait until it's out to check the connections one last time. I'm done with Optima, been there done that. I'll check out Northstar. I just want something proven.

Took out the Escalade style gauge cluster and shipped it off to have the VIN, mileage and hours corrected. Also having blue LED's put in.


This will look sweet in blue. Post up who you are using.

Used the leftover 1/0 gauge I had from my camaros battery relocation to do the big three. Used a stinger fuse box off the battery to be safe and wrapped it all in black nylon techflex because lime greens just too much for the Denali lol

So far haven't noticed too much of a difference, but apparently the people on gmfs have noticed a 1-2 mpg increase so I'll be on the watch for that.

Hate to quote myself but the Northstar battery looks identical to my diehard platinum. It's been a good battery other than one side basically going dead lol. I'm charging it with a DC power engineering 270a alternator yet it still reads low on CCA. Anyone using these or other AGM battery with any luck?

Not sure why the gasket pic showed up...

your phone is reading my mind, about to do those, and the valve cover gaskets.
