Optima Yellow Top $145 G31

no doubt. you can buy this for $145, get all the use out of if you want, and STILL sell it and break even, or profit 5 bucks or so.

I wonder how many they have in stock.

Because, I'll be picking one up 2marrow if they have enough.

Nope. There are two different model G31's.

One has the threaded stud, the other has the regular top post style.

You could always get a terminal that has studs on it that attaches to the top post, but thats not something I wanted.

Im guessing that this is the one with the threaded post.

whats wrong with the threaded post? my buddies dekas use that. he loves it.

from the PE page:

*Type Post/Terminal

Like Tommy said in the pic it looks like its gonna be the regular terminal, not the threaded one.

Guess its back to the deka plan.

just an issue of convenience and easier connections on a threaded post

Its not the threaded stud, its the regular top post terminal that you see on normal car batteries.

Like I stated earlier, the G31's have two different style posts from the factory.

G31A (the one on PE) has the SAE posts

G31T has the threaded stud

I was just wondering for clarification.

I actually prefer the standard post as opposed to the threaded one.

It really depends on the install.

Replacing a stock location battery usually calls for the SAE post, but if you are adding a 2nd battery the threaded stud is usually easier to integrate.

You can always get a top post adapter that allows ring terminals and whatnot.
