I take it it's supposed to be 630 cranking amps. I am sure it will do your job.

If you drive the car in very cold weather, you might have a problem. It should be okay for summer driving though.

Make sure your cables and connections are in good condition.

well, during the winter months, I take it out for a good 10-15 mile drive once a week,weather permitting. (note: this battery currently isn't in the car now)

cables/connections are excellent. only reason it was removed,was I thought it was the cause of the slow hot start issues I was experiencing, since I replaced the starter, I thought about putting this new battery back in.
