I know that they used group 27 batteries and in Challengers, the 440 came with red caps. Not sure about the cap color in Cudas.

 :iagree:
red cap, the repro glass mat batteries are over $200, and there are a number of sources for them. Do a search of the site as several threads are full of lots of good advice.
Here's one to start you off:
