Ok, here are a few numbers. From a battery manufacturer site or two.
Lifeline GPL-27T c/20 capacity 100 amp hours.
31's were 105 to 125 Amp hours (Different models of the 31)
Optima blue top D-27-M C/20 capacity 66 Amp Hours or 2/3 of the Lifeline (I did say 50% more power in a lifeline)
The Group 31 is 75 amp hours. or about the same percentage
SO TWO Lifeline XX's in parallel are like 3 OPtima's of the same size class.
WHY BUY OPTIMA??? Why even consider them? And they cost more..
