I am looking for a replacement battery for my '56 Parklane. I have found quite a few available (29NF) but almost all of them are 13 inches long. The battery clamp down bracket allows for a battery a little less than 12.75 inches (the max width between the holes for the clamp down bolts). I note the really expensive reproduction batteries are 12.5 inches long.

I did find a 12.25 inch long battery from Battery Giant (29NF-420); NAPA's battery 7280 is close at 12.875 inches. Has anyone found any other options? By the way, the replacement battery tray I got from Mac's isn't very good -- the holes for the bolts aren't elongated for the flatness of the end of the bolts and they don't fit through the bottom of the tray!

Thanks,
