Subject:aux. battery system for '81 Westy Vanagon

I messed this up last time and somehow deleted my message, so here goes for one more try.  I am trying to fix my auxillary battery system on my '81 Westy.  I was wondering if after installing an isolator, I could install a deep cell battery for my aux. battery and still have a regular car battery for ignition (can they be different sizes)?  Also, since a deep cell won't fit in the compartment below the driver seat, would I have any ventilation problems (how much ventilation does a battery need) if I had the deep cell hooked up in the cupboard behind the drivers seat below the sink/stove?
I have more questions but I'll try for answers to just those two for now.
Thanks in advance.
