Those with Red Top Optima Batteries, Come In!
Hi,
I have a 98' LS1 Trans Am and I just purchased a Red Top Optima Battery from Sam's Club, well this thing does not fit very good, I had to really push hard to get it into place and it is pushing up against the radiator...can those of you who have the battery and had no fitment issues please look at the part number on top of the battery for me and let me know what it is so I can compare it to mine. Thanks!

Well I went out and looked at mine, and it says the Model # is SC34U
Other stats are Cranking Amps: 1000
Cold Cranking Amps: 800
RC:100
So it appears that I have the wrong one then?

You bought it at Sams? They should have checked thier book to see that it fit. Why else would your dad have bought the one he did? Stick to your guns. Sams' is typically good on returns.

Same Battery too!
I got that same battery too. It is a little snug but it does fit. Before I bought it the guy at my Sam's Club checked his catalog to see if it would fit. He said it was the wrong group size. He told me to take it and if it did not fit I could just return it.
I could not pass it up. $125.00 battery with a $25 rebate.
