Hi there,
When I was searching for a battery, I wasn't too precious about it. Love you, I was still using the original Dynamo/ Power steering pump, and had changed to Negative earth .
I went to a large Halfords, and searched for the highest rated battery that would safely fit the space.
I selected a HCB096. This had a CCA of 680 amps, and was rated at 75 Amp/hours. It came with a 4 year guarantee.
I couldn't find a battery with the original terminal orientation; it seems most had the positive terminal at the right hand front and negative terminal at the left hand front. The original leads had enough length to cope.
This battery turns a cold engine over just fine, and I'm sure would be okay for you.
Regards, Richard
