For a look at a very clean example of buddy pairing, checkout http://members.xoom.com/evalbum/050b.jpg or if that link acts up, got to http://members.xoom.com/evalbum/050.html and click on the center picture. Al Godfrey buddy paired 24 Optima yellow tops so cleanly it takes a moment to realize they are pairs. I buddy paired the Delphis in my Civic, by paralleling the front ones with 00 cable, and the rear ones with 2/0 braided strap. This way I only needed 13 Rudman regs for 26 batteries.
