Need battery
So I am in the process of relocating my battery to the trunk of my C5Z. I purchased a battery mount, formed 12g steel that is made for a 34/78 series Optima. As we all know, Optima hasn't been the best in terms of reliability since about 2010 when production went South of the border...
Being that it is inside, and not in a vented box, I need an option for a good street car battery that would match the optima dimensionally, or at least close to it +/- ~1/4" or so. The car is driven regularly pending weather from April-November, and is on a tender from December-March. Would Odyssey or Braille have a good option to match this that anyone knows of? I am open to other brands as well, just depending on if it will fit the mount that I have. Thanks in advance.

Look for a sealed AGM Group 78 battery - several notes of late here;
