Choose one with the least "flanging" around the bottom. I bought one
that went in fine, but the structural trim around the bottom stopped
the battery from coming out. I had to hoist it out so hard that it
snapped off to get it out.
As long as the bottom of the battery doesn't have too many ribs
and such around the edges, it'll fit. But it's CLOSE.

That's all. Assuming negative ground, the long positive line goes
to the positive of the single battery and the negative battery
post connects to the chassis anywhere that is solid and convenient.
