   I go to my long-time mechanic, and he puts a great honking Interstate
MegaTron in it. Usually winds up being an 850cca unit, but sometimes it's a
940cca (I think). I never have any trouble with them. I used to use great
big Die-Hards, but I've found they're fragile - once they get drained flat a
couple times, they're all done.
