lil secret on yellow tops, they have worse specs then a top of the line delco battery or interstate and are way more money. id go with a top of the line interstate, they are better spec and have way better warrenty

brianb has a spectacular aura aboutbrianb has a spectacular aura about
Optimas ( i have a red top myself, still prefer my ac delco tho) are good but i agree with brownkid, for that kinda power you should really look into a high output alternator.

3 batteries 2 alternators and 5 caps....dude you're joking right?
Don't give misinformation if you don't know what you're talking about.

What system are you running exactly, then we could perhaps suggest what you need and don't need, and why your system keeps cutting out.

We don't even know if the guy is running "3000 rms" which is why I said he should tell us what setup he has so we can figure how how to help.
What does it matter who I am?

if you are running 3000 rms i hop u have some 0 gauge wiring...a 200-300 amp alt and a few batteries.

I highly doubt your running that though.
