51R battery does not fit after all...

It's too long. It's wedged between the fuse box and some of the intake hardware. The intake component is rubbing against the side of the battery and is transmitting engine noise/vibration into the body. The excess noise and vibration is objectionable to the driver and I don't think it's doing the battery any favors, either.

Are there any solutions to this problem?
