Hi All, the battery on my '91 ZR1 has expired. Any recommendations on spec, brand, and supplier. Pic of the existing battery attached. It is not that old (no more than 3 years), and the car has been in storage a lot until recently. So I am thinking I could do better. Many thanks!

Maybe before buying again for a new battery since existing one is only three years old
If possible, check the fluid levels of each cell
Have or go to auto parts store and do a battery load test while still connected to ZR-1
If battery passes those tests then fully charge and from then on use a battery tender to keep battery fully charged
Clean the battery posts and also the battery cable lugs and be sure they are tight on the posts

Thanks for the replies. I have bought an Enduroline 75.60 side post, from Tayna Batteries. This has identical specs to the Numax 75-60 (I think the 75 refers to a US group size), but has a 4 year warranty rather than the 3 years offered by Numax. Also I have an Enduroline in a Chevy Caprice, also supplied by Tayna, and that battery has been going strong for 5 years. I will get the existing battery checked out though before I chuck it - it might even be within warranty! Thanks again.
