    Best choice for dual batteries?

    What are the current best options for dual batteries?

    The Porsche replacement is std lead acid and 236 each from Stoddard.

    Thanks!

    I just installed two Mazda Miata AGM batteries from battery mart.com in my 69. I used the 2 1/8” foam blocks that they were packed in to put behind them. It was the perfect size to put the batteries in the proper position for the tie down brackets. About a 1/2” foam piece fore and aft and they are rock solid.
    Do a search lots of thoughts on batteries.

    Up until 08 maybe. Just go for 95 and you’ll be good.
