Battery Hold Down for Optima Battery
I put an Optima Red Top battery in the trunk of my 2013 427 Vert. The battery hold down is too small for the Optima Battery. Does anyone make a nice billet aluminum or carbon fiber hold down that will fit an Optima Red Top?

But will not solve the problem with the back side, since it not going to clamp into the back side of the battery.

So what is needed is the bottom clamp pan type at least, which has the needed lip to get it under the back lip of the tray to begin with.
Now to add in, since the Optima battery have gone down hill with a lot of them not making it to the end of the warranty periods before having to be replaced, may be all a mute point, and would have been better off with a better standard battery instead.
