Hey folks,
looks like I need a new battery, mine will not stay charged even after being on the charger all day. One start and its dead. Probably related to the over charging issue I had last year?
Based on my research on this site, it look's like a group 24 battery is correct for a small block cuda. Is a Group 34 an acceptable alternative?
I want to go with an AGM battery and was thinking Optima Red Top.
I can not find an optima Red top group 34 locally (there website indicates a Group 25 will fit, but not luck with that locally either).
Canadian Tire has an AGM house brand Group 34 at a decent price and in stock. I was thinking of going with that but want to make sure it fits.
Thoughts?

I had a red top optima in another car, lasted 2 seasons. With the Challenger I went with this on a few peoples recommendations and its been great for many years now.... :twothumbsup:

I've had an Optima Red-Top in mine for about 8 years and still going. I can certainly recommend, here's a pic of it in the Challenger. It is a 25 which is smaller I believe but plenty of amps. I drive it frequently but if it is going to sit for more than a couple of weeks I put it on my charger (AGM mode).
thanks for the suggestions guys.
I went with a Group 34, AGM Canadian Tire house brand. Decent price, found one local, and had points to use so I got for less then $150.
Car fired right up!
