1929 ford complete restoration changing to 12 volt. What is the best group number battery that will give me the best fit. Thanks

I have used a Group 35.

You will also need to make it negative ground.

What do the dimensions look like for a Group 35? And where are the posts on the top of the battery on the 25 vs. the 35? I find the posts on the 25 in an inconvenient place.
