Your questions answered
What is the watt-hour rating?
Roughly 1600 Wh. Remember that lead-based batteries should not be discharged completely, so plan with a margin.

64.8 kg is the listed weight. For larger batteries, a second pair of hands makes fitting safer.
What is the cold cranking rating of the Exide ET1600?
With 1100A, it suits vehicles whose maker specifies that value or less. Cold climates benefit from extra.
