What might be closer to your budget is to get a DC/DC converter, a few of those packs and pull your alternator belt off then use the lithium packs to keep your lead acid battery fully charged.
I worry about drawing 75 amps from those batteries, the wires just don't seem large enough to handle it and at 90 amps those wires are going to start melting insulation.
