I need a new battery for my 89 Saleen, and I figured I may as well go with an Optima since I've heard good stuff about them. My car is seldom used so I'm thinking a yellow top. Also, if you have one in a fox-body, what model/size did you use? Thanks in advance!

I've heard great things about the durability of their yellow top... they are HEAVY though.

Take this with a grain of salt, Sears' website listed the Diehard for my car @31.0 lbs, and the optima @ 31.7 lbs. You have to wonder though if this is correct.

The specs listed, also show the optima as 2 1/16" taller. Guess I'll have to stop on the way home.
