My battery is well and truly dead (bent cells driving around when alternator f@#$ed out), so i thought i would get my lift to work to drive me past battery world and pick one up. Problem is the battery listed in the Century catalog (apparently the bible of batteries) is about twice as big as what is in there. Was hoping to pick one up on the way home tonight, does anyone know what type of battery i am looking for?
It would be a huge benefit!!

Hehe, I know its not an ST185, but mine is from a Commodore, 460CCA. Good buy, although I forgot to check if the terminals were right
