need a replacement for oem battery. what can i get?

 

Simple answer is most anything that will fit....with a vent-tube!!
How much do you want to spend?
Any special needs...like a big radio...or a lighter weight for racing, or bigger for longer life+better cold starts?

 

I did go with the Optima 34R
works well in a car that may sit or has exposure to extreme cold, and it DOES NOT need a vent tube.
Many other fit fine....
Big thing is the vent to prevent Hydrogen gas from building up in the car if it is a CONVENTIONAL flooded acid battery, like the OEM.

 

ive been recommended an interstate battery. possibly the 33 lb mega tron with 650 cca. price is not an issue. i need something that will fit properly as well as last. the car sits most of the winter in new england but i start it at least once a week and let it warm up during that time. lightweight is always good, but more of a preference than critical.
