Most autostores can let you know what battery you need from the make, year and model of your car. Have you tried AutoZone or PepBoys?

Supposedly the 75/35 batteries will fit. That's the optima size a lot of people use.

When my battery was going bad a few months ago, I parked my car in the parking lott and took the battery out then and there to make sure it was the right size. Funny thing is that I bought it from AutoZone and they looked it up on the computer to find the battery that I needed...unless you're asking to find the size of the battery on the computer that goes for the car specifically.
