CCA is measured at 0 degrees fahrenheit (found this out today) and 650 CCA seems
to be about
all I can get in Group 41 or Group 42 --- some of places I've
called seem to think that Group 41 is the size and the local Interstate
Battery dealer says a Group 91 will fit too. This is probably in Bentley but
my Bentley is down the street in the van --- I need an office copy (on CD
maybe..)

Thanks,
