The basics are that if you tie batteries in series, the voltage doubles, but the amps remain the same. Tie the same two batteries in parallel, the voltage remains the same, but the amps will double.

... so if you take a couple of 6v 500CCA batteries, series = 12v; 500CCA, parallel = 6v; 1000CCA. The same concept means that a couple of 12v 500CCA batteries in parallel would do 12v at 1000CCA. That"s how the batteries in my Chevy diesel pickup are configured.
