Don't tell my '73 MGB.;)  It is true that the group 26 and its replacements 
have hold-down tabs on two sides of the case that prevent the battery 
from sliding down the well.

Solution: get out the hacksaw, and trim off one of the tabs (do _not_ cut 
into the case).  If that still isn't enough, the other tab needs to come 
off too.
