V8Capri, if you don't mind the odessey battery, you can go with a much smaller box. Then "nothing" gets in the way, and the battery has handles built in for easy lift out and put in. Just make sure you can push the cables through the hole, or make the cable holes large enough near the top of the box for the battery to pass by the cables. The battery is only about 5" tall as well.
