Just went from lead acid to AGM, although my application is far from stock, I went down to Costco with a tape measure and found one that fits perfectly. 650 CCA turns over my V8 just fine, even with the battery relocated to the front. I did have to rework the terminal since they were opposite of my lead acid, but it cleaned things up. Attached Image
