car battery question?

i have a battery that's busted and need replacement im not sure whether the original one is 1smf or 2smf, i bought a 2smf instead... next its 60 amperes, i bought one with 50 amperes, would there be any effect on the car's electricals, charging system, alternator?

would this do?

i also bought the low maintenance type which uses water instead of maintenance free ones,due to budgetary constraints...

what's ur advice...

    If the voltage and physical size are correct, it should work. The ampere rating is how much the battery can put out. You normally need a higher rating if your region experiences cold winters because batteries don't work as well in really cold weather. If you live in a warm climate, 10 amps shouldn't make a big difference.
