Battery 650 CCA enough for a 455?

http · 03-08-2008, 02:40 PM

Hey!

I want to know if it will be powerful enough to start the engine without problems? Someone know wich battery comes original in a Delta 88 1973 with the 455??

Or am I better to buy a new one? I can have a 875 CCA for half price but if I don't need it I'll keep the money

Thanks!

CCA=Cold cranking amps

How cold does it get?
You should be fine.

What is the RC rating? that's the important one to me. How long the battery can go if you shred the alternator belt.
