Correct Battery ?

[hifijoe]

Looks like i need to replace my battery and getting 2 different sizes. Group 24 and Group 34 which appears to be 1 inch higher. Sams has a Duracell group 34 for $100 w/core and has more CCA. Anyone know if this will fill 82 Fiat Spider battery box ?

Group 24 is for 1966-1982 Spiders. However there are a lot of other sizes are a close enough to fit.

Note that Advance Auto Parts has a battery in its database (assumed a nationwide DB) that is too tall to fit inside the plastic cover, although it has the same footprint. I had to return one to them and find a suitable alternative.

I found the same thing at the auto parts store where they gave me a battery that was too tall. I always measure the dimensions of the existing battery. Thread hijack alert. Do people find the deep cycle batteries beneficial?

Group 34 worked fine. Ended up being 1 inch shorter than a Group 24

Thx all
