And yes, the threaded mounts in the tub accommodate Group 48 and 49, and the ground strap will reach either.
Thanks for the verification that the ground strap will reach on a Group 48 battery and that there are threaded mounts for both sizes. Believe I'll go with the AGM DEKA battery in a group 48 size.

Appreciate all of the posting to my questions.
