Its not gonna kill the battery right away.... but i do believe deep cycling a regular battery would sulfate the positive plates in the battery, shortening its lifespan... It's by no means going to cut out on you real quick.... I've had my battery for about 3 years now and its died a few times I did a 15 second load test on mine at school.... your supposed to load the battery to half of its CCA rating and it shouldnt drop below 10 volts (i believe) Mine dropped to 3 volts in 7 seconds.... LOL after it dying a bunch of times it just doesn't have that "ooomph" anymore, ya know? But anyway, those optimas are designed to be deep cycled, so you're straight with one of those!

if you are going to swap it to the rear, do optima, extra weight back there will help.
if its left up front, do the odyssey since it'll free up a bunch of room.

I like the way aero3685 did his....I didnt think this thread was going to last this long.....Back to the bumper though with oddesy battery all you would have to do is remove the bumper blinker passenger side for a jump or no.If the battery is lighter than stock then what difference in ballance would that make any ways would it really be that much? Thanks for the info....
