Default S2000 battery?

Has anyone replaced their battery yet? I was looking at majestic honda's website and it list two batteries for the S2000. They are the same price but different descriptions.

51/440AMP70
55B24R S-MF

I'm guessing either one will do?

I don't know about the Honda batteries, but when I needed mine replaced I just went to Sears. The one in Valley View Mall has a drive-through battery service area, even. Very convenient.

I think I spent $40 on a replacement S2k battery at Autozone that I bought for another Honda.

I haven't ever had good luck with Autozone batteries, but the price always sucks me in. I think they have some sort of corrosion virus that perminently infects the car.

Corrosion? There are easy ways to protect against that. If you never clean and grease your terminals, your connections and cables are guaranteed to corrode.

Has anyone checked into Champions new line of batteries...? They look like optima clones. Unfortunately they do not seem to have a size 51 yet.
