Default Re: lightweight battery recommendation (non lipo/life)

In my bracket car I ran 1 optima and 1 motorcycle battery (11lb) with alternator. Didn't know if it would work. 2 seasons later motorcycle battery gave up.
But be a stocker is the correct size battery need to be in stock location?

I've been using 2 of the Odyssey batteries with no issues. They are 2 years old now. Keep a maintainer on them and only charge at low amps. Not crazy about lithium ion batteries.
