so any one know where i can order the optima batteries?..the blue top i think

You probably don't want the blue top (aside from the color) as they are created for marine purposes. Red tops are made specifically for cars, yellow for those who have extra need or for weekend project cars.
If I remember correctly Pepboys might carry them.

Costco also carries some Optima batteries, decent price. Worth looking into

i dont have a their club card

Autozone carries them too. But if costco carries them...FIND someone w/ a membership. it's probably worth your trouble.

ok never the optima.. it wont fit.. i need someone who can get me a reactor battery.. i have a moroso battery box in the truck and a reactor battery mount kit installed.. the optima is too wide to fit between the clamps.. and the only way to remove those clamps is to remove my gas tank.

Why can't you measure the dimensions of the battery box and go down to Sears and find a Die-Hard that'll fit?....
 
Posted by Hrly01Stng (Member # 2843) on :
 
No umm the box has a special mount inside also for that bat.. its tiny.. i cant remove the mount unless i drop my gas tank..

If its Moroso part# 74050 any group size 24 battery will fit...

BTW, it a 24 wont fint, it doesn't take that long to drop the tank....You probably only have to lower it a little to get to where you need.... [patriot]

the battery from what i've found out is that its a airplace battery.. its called reactor made by what is now the name of rock racing. [Confused]
i have no clue.. the only place that carries it is performanceunlimited.com for 229.99
 
Posted by Black94 5.0 (Member # 655) on :

Posted by Hrly01Stng (Member # 2843) on :
