Yellow-top Optima D51R is what Jeremy @ FM recommended to me. I've got
one in my car, it's way better than the WestCo I had before that ever was.
My Hydra (for whatever reason) does a pretty poor job of starting the car
when the battery is marginal, and the WestCo was marginal from day one.

FM sells them, but they're available lots of other places too. It doesn't
quite fit perfectly, but it's worth the hassle in my experience.
