The 5-yr battery in my BJ8 gave up the ghost today, after a measly
7+ years ;)   It was an Eveready brand bought at Costco and it's the
best battery I've ever seen ... never corroded the terminals or caused
a problem in 7+ years.

Anyway, anyone got a recommendation for batteries; looking for 
something reliable and not inclined to leak acid or fumes.  The local
parts house I like--Winchester Auto--recommends their house brand,
called "Advantage," anybody have experience?  I'd go with an Optima,
but think it might be a pain to fit with the stock Healey brackets.
