Thanks

One that sits snugly as possible in the cradle.
Measure it up and see what fits!

Re: LD10 battery
But make sure the posts are the correct size and on the correct side of the battery for the leads to fit neatly, as Neil says I just measured the space available in my V8, trundled down to my friendly motor factor with them and got the right thing first time. Syd
Re: LD10 battery
Thanks for input. I have also been told as well as fitting the space get the highest Ah rating and CCA.

Re: LD10 battery
John, if you did not know, AH stands for "Amp Hours" and is the number of hours a battery will deliver current at one amp before running flat. CCA stands for Cold Cranking Amps and represents the amount of current a battery can deliver for cranking a cold engine.
The higher the AH the longer the battery will hold up without charge. The higher the CCA, the better the battery will hold up and deliver a cold start.
So yes get the battery with the correct physical size and highest AH and CCA, but as always the higher rated batteries will cost more. Syd
