Good mornin Andy, thanks for the kind words. Ive NEVER ran any actual experiments, but it just seems intuitive to me a higher CCA battery stores more energy (that parts a FACT) and when the starter is connected to it, it pumps out more initial amps into the starter and drops less voltage (over time verus amps) then say a smaller battery that stores less energy would.
I figure the bigger battery can and will deliver MORE AMPS to the starter then the smaller battery and hey, more amps and more volts yields more kick in torque right?????? and thats what can be tougher on starter drives and gears I think
The CCA rating has to do with how many amps the battery can deliver BEFORE DROPPING DOWN TO 12 - X volts. A higher CCA can deliver more amps without and before it drops down to 12 - X volts. Its the voltage drop that is used to determine how many amps it can deliver BEFORE OR WITHOUT dropping x amount of volts. The same amp load out of a big CCA battery will cause its voltage to drop less then the same amp load out of a smaller CCA battery right????????????
Its true either battery drops voltage the more amps it delivers, but the higher CCA can deliver more initial amps before its voltage drops to a certain threshold level then the smaller CCA battery can. The bigger battery can maintain more volts at the same amp delivery then the smaller battery whose volts drop more at the same amps
Heck now Im confused, what was your question lol
Maybe Bob or Bob M or Jim or JD can explain it better

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
