There's supposed to be a bracket at the base of the battery holding tray that you can unbolt and then slide left or right to accomodate a larger or smaller battery. Did you adjust the bracket prior to securing the new battery in?

Yes, I loosened the terminals and took the lower bracket off, I did secure down the new battery with the same bracket, but since it's not as wide I feel on a tight turn it would come loose. No big deal, I'll think of something. Damn, the original Porsche battery is nice!!, wish I could afford one.
