    That setup is just awkward why the fuck they need all the batteries all you need is a modified Alternator to pull more Amps.

    Ambulance alternator, re-wire, new batteries (yes you need them, minimum of 4) and fix the broken stuff.

    A deep cycle battery will last longer because it has more reserve capacity and take more charges but it won't let your setup perform as quickly as it could with regular car batteries. Depends on what you're going for

    He needs a setup to charge them like is original battery but his stock Alternator wouldnt do nothing but go bad quick.
    So
