This is a delco sealed battery. It fits well, but you have to make a few adjustments.

The battery bracket has to be moved back and on this '94 the bolt holes are ALREADY there to do so. Just unbolt the bracket, move it aft, rebolt it in place!

65843
The hold-down brackets must be extended. Harry welded his longer, but you can also purchase longer rods very cheaply.

THIS IS IMPORTANT: You need to use silicone to seal the ends of the vents on BOTH sides of the battery. Then drill and insert a 90 degree elbow (it's a drip irrigation elbow). Then reattach the standard vent "harness."
