OK, I have done hours of internet searches looking for the
correct battery. Yes I know I could use something else,but
sometimes you just have to go for it..
For those that don't know, the BCI groups batteries in
10's so a group 50, would go up to 59, a group 70 would go to 79
Group 60 is the same way..
Out of all the Brands I searched, and I'm not saying I searched every
brand, but those I did like Excide, Interstate, DieHard, Delco etc
only Motorcraft and Duracell make a battery that would fit the battery
tray almost to original.
the 56 (The 400 Hunderd) battery tray is 13 x 7" nominal
Motorcraft has a battery BXT64 12.28 x 6.23 x 8.83" and

Duracell is a SLI64 11.75 x 6.25 x 8.875"

I have yet to find a store that carries either on, and I live in
SoCal...
Thanks to all of you who had input
Best
