I saw that a few years ago at the Rollag steam thresher show in one fellows Moline collection. These were the large 500 plus cubic inch 6 cyl moline diesels, I seem to remember 5 tractors by one owner. In the center of the battery tray that originally held 3-12V batteries sat a single little Exide Orbital(A clone of the Optima,a spiral cell AGM battery) They all fired right up and ran the parade twice per day. The rest of the time the tractors were parked in the Moline section on thresher man's hill. Great starting battery technology, I have those Optima and Exide orbital, spiral cell AGM batteries in most of my equipment and have yet to have one fail. The oldest is 16 years old and still cranks like new. Those sealed AGM batteries do not vent corrosive gas or acid, so never any corrosion of cables or battery box.
