RDH,

	A friend of mine is an electrical engineer at Cadillac, and pro 
rallys a VW Golf for fun.  He used to work in Batteries, and 
alternators.  We discussed batteries a couple months ago when I was 
diagnosing my electrical troubles.  His help was invaluable.  As 
expected, the topic of "Who's battery is best" came up, and he said 
unequivocably that the Delco battery is the best.  He went on to say that 
Exide comes a close second, with all the rest in third.  His criteria 
were strength, and workmanship.  I guess his rally car rattles batteries 
to pieces in short order.
