Optima battery I would like to purchase a lightweight Optima battery for my '02 F body. I plan on leaving it in the stock location. Can someone please tell me which one (part#) to buy? Also, what should I expect to pay, and how much of a weight saving should I see, and last of all, how reliable are these things? Anyone? Thanks.

Re: Optima battery I don't believe there are any weight savings to be had in an Optima battery. Zero maintenance, and they last practically forever, from what I hear, though.
