My current battery came with the car, which I got something like 8 years ago. So I now need a new one.
What's the max cranking amps that I can buy that won't fry the starter (if that's a thing?). My current battery barely turns the engine over. Is there a specific code that I can search in order to source the correct one? I don't want to change the clamp or anything else. |

It should have the same overall dimensions, yes. You might need to coil your ground cable given how much toward the corner the post is, but I think you'll have plenty of room for that too.
