Thank you for your answers.I read another post that stated having very high cca can somehow negatively effect your alternator .Is this true? Thanks

You will need at least 550 CCA for your vehicle, but it won't hurt to have more. Especially with the cold weather.

I'd agree with Scotty...I always recommend putting the largest battery or one with the most CCA, that will fit in the battery tray especially for winter driving and starting. A battery can lose 50 percent or more of it's normal CCA at low temps and a cold engine has thicker oil making it even harder to start.

350 is barely enough the bigger is better in this situation. I have a 4 cyl. and use a 850 cca battery, It will be along time before I have a problem.
