Default Optima batterys

I am having issues with my old battery and am looking to get a new redtop optima.
I have a 95 EJ and the battery is really small.
anyone know what model of optima will fit?

Or any sujestions of other batterys?

Another alternative to the optima would be called the Orbital battery.. many companies like to brand that battery like Napa and such.. I went with an orbital just to be different (I think).

Those orbital batterys suck ***, they dont even compare to Optimas. Back in high school my buddy worked at interstate batterys and got 4 optima brand new blems for 25 bucks a piece, I bought everyone sold one to my dad, my boss, put one in our rv, and our old boat. Those batteries just kick ***. I was also working at schucks and just took one of those orbitals and used it in my racecar, man that thing was ------- -----. They are made in taiwan.

::thumbs up on orbitals::
