They ALL will fit fine if you trim the tray a little bit.
Also Optima makes a hold down for the battery.

The feb 2005 issue of 5.0 mustang & super fords has a how too install.

They have an adapter that comes with the battery. It snaps onto the bottom of the battery. That's what I did with mine and it holds just fine.

I got my optima at autozone, they also have them here www.sounddomain.com....I didnt get a hold down, so I dont know where to get those, probably the same places that sell the batteries sell the hold down.
