are you serious with this thread? 30min?

Optima Yellow top 35 series. you can get them from an auto parts store. hopefully they have the right size and reverse post terminals.

if you look at most batteries the posts are on opposite side than what the 8 comes with. this means you have to get a reverse post battery.

when you look at your engine bay from the front the positive terminal is in the back on the right side. the negative is in the front on the right. make sure you get that configuration cause most batteries are not like that, they are the other way around.

ok so I know the Optima Yellow top is great but I am running a 2000 wt amp with a 10 farad cap..... Is the Red Top sufficient for this since it was what the car came with from the guy who sold it to me. BTW he sold it to me with only 5k on the motor because he did not like the Gas Mileage. Sorry for the spelling,m long day
