As long as it fits in the hole and the connections are the right way round it'll do, but get the best cranking power you can.

Thats a spiral battery fitted to a lot of the chrysler range (eg pt cruiser etc) and jeep models. They are for the more modern charging system I would say so just go for 096 or a 100 these are uk battery ref numbers so any motor factors will be able to sort you out with one.

Or you could go with a cheaper one lion batteries are euro car parts own brand and are made by exide so pop down your local branch

Yeh its the same one I restored there are two pics on "the transit mk5" in other projects. Its got an on board compressed air system that I designed and runs off the engine by means of a belt and an air con clutch. It takes 2mins 15seconds to produce 8bar of pressure on engine idle, and maintains it so you can run an air cut off tool;)(which use loads of air) If you increase the rpm of the engine you can half the time it takes to get to 8bar:D Its also got an on board 110/240v generator that runs off the engine and doubles up as a welder!
Ive racked it out with bott racking and fitted a rapid deployment trailer as well for the ones you cant fix straight away;)
Started work on my mk2 transit now its rotten! or should i say it was;)
