You have to modify the connection points but it will work.

I run an Odyssey PC680 (http://www.odysseybatteries.com/battery/pc680series.htm)

It's essentially a motorcycle battery. But be forewarned, my car is a track car. I don't have to worry about starting the car day after day in the winter. I don't know how long a motorcycle battery will last for daily use.
