Harvey,
Two issues here:
Harris is a battery supplier and I could not find out if what you have is a true deep cycle number. Deep cycle is really rare in a single 12V jar.
Next, do you really need more capacity?
If you need more capacity, see if you can fit a pair of golf cart (GC2) 6V jars in there. It may take so creativity to do so, but it will dramatically increase the amount of power available. You either need to blow big bucks on AGM, or make sure that they can be tended to properly.
