Kilgore Trout said:The one you describe as too small is the correct one IMHO. There should be a little bag of hold downs with the battery. One of them will lock it down perfectly.
Some people have gone with the big one and cut there battery tray. I chose to go with the small one and use the special hold down that came with it.
I can take some pics if you want...

yeah its not much work to get it in at all.urban96 said:redtop? if so get the bigger of the two. youll need to slightly trim out some of your stock battery tray but its no big deal. it comes with a new hold down that holds it inplace perfect
it should come with an hold down in a plastic bag thats taped to the battery that will replace the stock plastic piece and hold the optima right in snug.DerekStangGT said:no part numbers? it will say on the battery. i believe the smaller battery has 720 CCA and the larger has 800 CCA. so both will work? i tried the larger of the two and the bottom lip of the battery was too small and it popped out of the tray holder
the yellowtop is a marine battery. it isnt charged like an auto battery.san~man said:I got the yellowtop
i dont wanna have to trim the tray though. i just want to make sure the smaller battery will still work with the extensions in the kiturban96 said:it should come with an hold down in a plastic bag thats taped to the battery that will replace the stock plastic piece and hold the optima right in snug.
the larger optima is a tad smaller one way but a bit larger the other way (where you need to trim the tray)
