Battery box sizing

I am finally gonna finish up some electrical stuff on my car, and I need to figure out what size box I need.

I am planning on reusing the stock battery, so side posts. Now there are two battery box choices, both are NHRA approved, but differ in size.

The one is a 9 5/8 x 11 1/4 x 13 1/2 and the other is 11 x 9 1/4 x 13 1/2. ( H x W x L)

First one being the moroso, http://www.summitracing.com/parts/MOR-74050/

And the second a summit box, http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-G1231/

And I found this box, it says its made for side post group 24 batteries.. http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/555/10230/10002/-1?CT=999

Thoughts?

aren't stock battery's group 75?

stock battery will definitely fit in the moroso, i've done that. the summit brand looks to be too small, its pretty tight as is with the blue box. jegs looks to be too short but it just might, its only an eighth of an inch.

I have the second box you have listed, it would easily fit your battery with side mounts. I had to stuff bubble wrap in the sides to keep my big ass red top from sliding around
