Taken from another thread, hope this helps:

Another forum member got in touch with me, and the Optima that comes OEM is definitely a custom part.. Its Group 35, 700cca 90 reserve. I think it also has a vent tube, I need to read the PM again.

Edit: just checked the site and it's 35. You can also run a yellow top (part #D35)

So we ended up getting the Yellow Cap D35 battery because they had no red caps in stock. Apparently since the Optima's are gel they don't need a vent tube.
