Default Optima battery selection
I have a 130A 3G alternator and the following electrical loads:

- Weldon 2025A fuel pump ~25 amps
- Lincoln Mark 8 fan ~35 amps
- MSD 6AL ~20 amps
- Low impedance injector driver ~15 amps
- misc. (headlights, brake lights, ect.) ~?? amps

Which Optima battery should I run? The red top or the yellow top (deep cycle)? The car is a weekend cruiser/racer only. Thanks.
