I've been using the Optima Red Top 34/78 for a couple of years. Can't beat it for cold cranking amps. Another alternative is the 34R... You get rid of the silly snorkel too!!!

I recomend the Optima Red Top because it will not spill if the car is in a accident. You do not want acid all over you if you are upside down trapped in a vehicle.
