Whatever battery u choose, make sure it's securely bolted down. Bungee cord installs reduce battery life by half in my experience.

Measure the length, width, and height of your battery box, go to Wallmart and look over the batteries, Get the highest cold cranking amps, Reserve capacity, and warranty combination that you are willing to pay for and that fits. pay attention that the terminals are on the end you need.

Sorry, I believe he lives in Poland. ( Walmart aint there...........................YET! :lol: )

Jacov8, Bosch batteries are sold here in the US at Pep Boys automotive stores but I haven't heard anything good or bad about them.I guess anything with BOSCH on it is good in my experiance.

When I had a 68 Road Runner I put a Sears Die Hard in it and when I sold the car I took the battery and put it in a 88 Daytona and ran it until I got a 91 Daytona in 05 and it is still getting the job done, mabey I have a good one. Haven't had any problems with it.I know they cost more nowdays but it might be worth a try.
