My current dead battery shows the following reference 75 5MF and 550 CCA. it is not the original battery but I assume it has the correct characteristics fro my 1994 ZR1

My Chevrolet dealer can only provide me with a none delco but similar size battery with 460 CCA as single reference

Is 460 CCA enough and harmless for engine start or should I better order myself directly an ac delco with 550 CCA from the USA?

Thanks for your support
I believe 690 CCA is the original requirement/spec.
