I tried puting one in my z. first one didn't work because the terminals were on the wrong side. then I order a second one and that didn't have enough juice to start the car. I gave up on that.

Sear's auto stores have them. You have to get the one without the 'R' (think it's 51D) the 'R' is the reversed terminals.

The terminals are long enough for the yellow top. You just have to remove the battery tray and relocate the positive wirings to the other side. Remove the negative cable from the fender and reinstall it with just one screw, thereby extending it 1/2".

I have a Red Top installed and it does just fine with start, etc. The Yellow top will fit but you have to mount backwards to get the terminals on the correct side. My Red Top is a 34R - R stands for reverse terminals so the positive is on the right side and it doesn't have to be mounted backwards.
