Yes, it is an 'international' size battery, remember we all trace our heritage back to the Mondeo, designed in Europe. Just got a shipment of parts: a timing belt tensioner made in England, and an idler pulley from Luxembourg.
Sears has an international Die Hard that is $80-$90 IIRC but the cheaper option is good ol' Motorcraft (~$50). Search the forum archives for many discussions of battery options.
That's what I was guessing... our Mondeo heritage
Called the dealer and they have one that is 11 3/8 high (650 cca) and one that is 9 1/2 (590 cca), which is it? (98 zetec)

oh, and it's $60
