What battery size, 97 U295

Good afternoon!  Coach is currently in storage and I need to order two new Optima Red Tops starting batteries.  Would save me a trip if anyone know what size I need for a 1997 U295?

Thanks in advance!

Got mine for the same price several months ago at Amazon as well.  Ordered on a Sunday and had them at my door the next day with free Prime delivery.  They must have had a local Houston warehouse.  Both were fresh date codes and tested above their rating.

Our red tops are rated at 1000 amps and have both side and top automotive posts.
There was room in the tray for 3 batteries, so when we replaced start batteries, we bought 3.
