Sorry ktmrf. You can double the voltage or double the amps, not both.
4 6v = 250ah. Chino
A GC2 battery is 6V and typically over 200 Ah (the common Trojan T-105s are 225 Ah, but current Interstate/Costco ones are labeled 160, which is the low end). We can use 250 Ah for discussion.
When you put two in series, you get a 12 V battery at 250 Ah. If you put two in parallel you get a 6 V battery at 500 Ah. If you put 4 in series/parallel, you get 12 V at 500 Ah.
Or, maybe you're thinking a GC2 is only 125 Ah. That would be way off base.
