We ran a 6610 for a couple weeks on an interstate 600 amp battery (it came out of a small toyota or something, almost a quarter of the size of the 4dtl. It ran just fine during that little bit of time until we got all the chain harrowing caught up with. This was during the summer/spring, so it fired up on the first crank. As long as this tractor fires up quickly and you keep it plugged up you should be fine. I ran an Allis Chalmers 7000 on an 800 amp car battery for a while in the winter. This is a tractor designed for 1800 amps cold (2 group 31 batteries in parallel). It was a little slow, but as long as I kept it plugged up or it didn't get below 50 degrees I was good. You might want to find that short. And water itself isn't a good conductor. Water that has solutes dissolved in it is a good conductor. Distilled water won't actually conduct and electricity at all. You should get 3 completely trouble free years out of one of those batteries. For a new one, I recommend Sam's Club if you have one around you. They were by far the least expensive and they carry energizer auto/industrial batteries, which for me have held up just as well as the NH or Carquest batteries.
