The only thing that I would be concerned with is getting a battery with the proper height to clear the recess of the battery box. The last thing you want to do is cause contact that would short out the battery.

My Spit's battery finally bit the dust yesterday. After an attempted charging, it's not going to turn the starter motor over. I double checked the battery terminals, etc. My question is this: How hard is it to use those newer type screw-on battery terminal posts with a Spit? Finding the positive cable replacement should be easy(it's a small cable), but I have found zero luck in finding a battery cable that also branches out to the ground so it ground out to the tranny bellhousing. Unless there's some separate cable I can mount on the screw terminal thing to use that for ground. If that's a no-no, please tell me. I've realized that these old fashioned battery clamps are more of a hassle than anything. Also, would this get in the way of the factory standard battery hold-down clamp?
