I need a new battery , I've been looking for a yellow top , but would take a red top insted . I can't find help . Can I just measure it and find something to match , or do I need to get one specifically made for 98 SVT ? Any help would be great . Thanks , quiksvt@hotmail.com

they don't come in different sizes, and i don't think they fit under the hood unless you lay them sideways....which is why mine is in the trunk.

Actually the red tops come in two sizes.
A group 75DT and a group 34/78DT.
You are most definitely correct about them not fitting in the upright position.

accualy the yellow tops come in 4 sizes now b/c they made one for the honda's, and the other three are about the same size, but not as powerfull... i have a yellow top under the hood of my tour,(in the upright pos) works just fine, just know that the red top's arent deep cycle, the yellows are and are a better battery IMO, u can also run a "blue" top (marine batt) and they work just fine too, but i dont think they would fit under the hood of a tour
