I asked for a 'quick discarge' battery, which you need for a starter. 0-320 engine. After one year it still turns the engine very fast, and I had a problem, due to water in the fuel at Dalhart Tx. yesterday, and ran the starter for a long time to pump water out of the carb. It seemed to to have more power over a long period of time than any battery I ever used.
