I agree.


Optima batteries are a little more expensive BUT they have a lot more cranking power, they do not lose their charge if the car is sitting for long periods of time and they last a lot longer than Lead-acid batteries.


I have Optima batteries in all 6 of my collector cars.


If using a 6 volt, most of the suppliers have a hold down that will fit the 6 volt Optima battery.


My experience and just my opinion.
