At some point, a battery cover and venting was fitted to extend the battery life, that can certainly limit one's options for larger batteries.
If the rad hose rests on the battery then I guess you cannot have a covered battery. The added heat from the rad hose will make the long life of a battery less likely.
With a good battery, four cylinders and a 0W or 5W synthetic oil, I think that you are getting a bit overly worried. A normal size battery will do fine and when its not able to serve well, it is at the end of its useful life. Having a larger battery to then throw out is not the point!
When are you going to stop posting about this ;<}
