Ok everyone I know we have had a little talk about a lighter battery.. I saw someone has used a optima battery? Now I dont really know much at all about batteries.. So could I get some info from someone. I want to get a optima but idk how to pick out the right one. If someone could point me in the right direction that would be great.

Optima
doesn't have the high CCA needed for your car.
Interstate battery has the group battery you need and some costco's have a vented battery of the correct size.
The weight saving even at the 10's of pound difference is not going t improve performance and it will degrade your starting and operations.

I'm not sure if its blasphemy on here but there is a guy on louisville Craigslist selling yellow and red tops for $100 each? Not sure if he will ship but worth a shot?
I'm looking into a yellow top myself. Stereo upgrade soon.
