I ended up going with the Exide group 49 battery from Partsource. It was $125 after core rebate.
It's a little longer, so you have to remove the plastic tab in the battery tray, but it's got 850CCA so there's more cranking power and reserve.

It's definitely not 32lbs though. It's just as heavy as stock (~56lbs)
