I would go with interstate or delco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acf Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 Any name brand is probably fine. 800 CCA's is optimal I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbpgawest Posted July 16, 2004 Share Posted July 16, 2004 npcomplete, I have a Interstate in my LS. I realy don't think it matter much, as long as you stick with a major brand. I would recommend getting the most "CCA" (cold cranking amps) that you can (mine has 850cca). This is usually the more exspensive one, and will have the longest warranty period. Let us know what you decied to go with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
npcomplete Posted July 17, 2004 Author Share Posted July 17, 2004 hello everyone, After all of your precious suggestions... I've finally bought AC DELCO Battery 850 CCA from local Pep Boys. But while I was replacing it, I accidently over tighten the thing (what do you call that round thing that goes on top of the +ve and -ve terminal???)... anyways, I tighten it so hard that it is broken... :( Looks like I need to replace that thing... Can anyone tell me what it is called and where can I get it from? Thank you so much for your supports again. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acf Posted July 17, 2004 Share Posted July 17, 2004 The cable clamp? You can get a replacement from AutoZone et al... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
