[FC] Battery Hold Down

[econousaparts at fuse.net]

  Ok,so I'll admit Im a little slow at installing the Corvan's battery I bought about 2 weeks ago. I put it in and she fired right up and its been sitting about a year in the garage so I was glad it cranked up so quick and easily.
   However,with the new battery being taller(short term memory here but I think it was 51 or 51R) , now the hold down bracket won't bolt in due to the j-hook bolts being too short. Is there any battery that fits and will accept the stock hold down bracket? If not,what do you suggest? I could re-order the old school type battery with the fill caps all across the top like the last one but it didnt last very long before it peterded out so that doesnt thrill me much.
