Battery Recommendations

[Hoss 350]

Hey fellers. Got any recommendations on battery sizing for a 7.3 up in the blustery cold north? Bigger is better, IMHO. Let me know what has worked for you!

motorcraft...theyve got the best warranty and have always served me well.

OEM Motorcraft's seem to have the best feedback.

Sams club has about the best price, and 3 year free replacement warranty. I have used Motorcraft as replacements. I had one Mtorcraft fail during the warranty period, and had some hassle getting the free replacement. Both batteries are made by Johnson controls. Duralast at autozone has received good feed back. These would be my choices.

i have had good luck with napa.......as odd as that may sound. i get them cheap, but if i didnt i would probably go with the MC as well.....my original set finally crapped out after serving for 10 years.

I watched a guy crank a NAPA battery for over an hour, trying to start a GM 3.8 with a jumped timing chain..

so I got NAPA batteries this time around.

OEM Motorcraft is best in my opinion.

I'm all for the OEM motorcrafts also. I have always had good luck with interstate's too.
