Check this first: Loose clamps on the battery terminal. 
The ONLY way to secure the C6 cam-style clamp is with a cone-shaped nut.
With a regular nut, the clamp CANNOT tighten. And a loose clamp can corrode: http://www.ls2.com/forums/showthread.php?t=846931

Please note that GM has the 86 G with 650 CCA listed as the battery for this car. But 700 CCA or higher is what you really need. 120 reserve is the minimum. 110 is not enough. The cars system will pull 5 volts to power the security and computer systems while the car is shut down...You need 120 reserve for this reason...If you use the 650 CCA battery that they list...you have to set the parameters to do so. Does anyone know what that means??? I'm not going to do that as I have 800 CCA . I,m just curious?? Do you have to reset the car's computer? ECM? Why..??? Shouldn't the car already be set for 650 CCA at the factory ?? Or as the default setting????
to understand you, did this battery with the bigger reserve solve anything for you? I don't think so, right?
