all the same mate, why do you need to know? if you buy one from most shops it'il say in the battery book thing along with the code.
makro is always a good place to get car batterys from.
Afaik all Nova petrol batteries are the same, but its worth considering a diesel one (Nova, Astra, Cavalier ones should all fit - my old hatch had a cav derv one in it) as it'll have a little more power to it.
Unless you mean dimensions and etc for relocating the battery?

if you use a Diesiel battery, dont you need to use a diesiel alternator?
A diesel batterys the same as a petrol one, just bigger, more amp's etc to crank over a diesel engine.
yea i had a cavva TD battery on mine and cept a standard alternator and the two worked in harmony for years
