Default which battery tray/box for an LS?

I need to know which battery tray and box and other stuff I need for the LS engine in my 89 CRX. I have a battery for an LS and I'm pretty sure if won't fit in the standard CRX battery tray. But will an LS try and box fit inside the CRX engine bay?

I would use the stock battery/battery box for your swap. I have a Crx/Civic sized battery in my Acura Integra so my SRI will fit properly

Well, I bought this car from a friend. It came swapped. Everything is done except for the battery and the axles. Anyway, so there is no stock battery. I just bought one for an LS from Pep Boys, but I can always exchange it. Wouldn't using a smaller D16 battery give you less crank power and well, just not be as good?

I never thought of it giving it less crank power, but I have a dura-last in my teg that is from a civic and I works fine. Starts just like the Ls size battery and I've also heard of people using motorcycle batterys to get rid of weight.
