The ones on my M body police cars are very similar to that one, but they have a bit of a "snorkel" at the front of the box to guide air flow from the front of the car around the battery. The "snorkel" like thingy pushes up against the rad support. Sorry, at work now and don't have a pic on this computer, but lmk if you'd like one.

Eric's picture is the police one that came with my cars. Thanks Eric. I have huge battery from Walmart in all mine and the thermoguard fits over them. You can see all the extra room in Eric's pic. I don't think you will have any trouble fitting a battery. If it fits in the battery tray, the guard will fit over it. The hold downs that I used on mine is also from Walmart. The only one they had, hanging next to the batteries. It is plenty long.

The 1978 shop manual shows the hold-down for a B body (whatever that is in 1978) has the windshield washer reservoir built into it!
Correct. Starting in 1978, for the B bodies anyway, the washer bottle was integrated into the Thermogard. These can be used on the earlier cars, but you have to move the pump wiring harness from the right fender to the left. I have one of those that I'll be running on my '77.
