Thanks for the replies - The 1" difference in height between the Group 27
(9" high) and Group 34 (7.9" high) should provide the clearance I need...I
am not sure though if the stock Pantera battery hold down, which works
perfectly for the 12.5" wide Group 27 battery, will work on the Group 34's
10.3" length...(I can just take the top hold down piece with me to the
battery store)

What is the proper size battery for a Pantera? I'm looking for a
standard battery, not Optima, etc.A
Thank you
