Has anyone used a marine starting battery in a car? Academy has a marine starting battery that has 1000 cca and 115 min reserve for about $80. It will fit in the battery space in my car. It is $20 cheaper that any other automotive battery I have found so far. The battery that came with the car is 700 cca, 130 min reserve. Dimensions are identical. Would I be in for problems with the Academy battery in my car? all responses will be appreciated.

Will work fine.

Should work fine but you can probably get the same battery with a different sticker on the side for less money and a better warranty at walmart.

I looked at Walmart- online and in the store- and even their batteries are $20 higher with much lower cranking amps.I was very surprised because the last time I bought a battery at Walmart it was because their price was the best. Not necessarily so theses days, at least on the kind I need this time.
