First 24s shows some of the many steps required to make this work.  
After modules are split the unneeded brick is removed with exception of a few buffer cells. These help prevent blown fuse wires during the build process.  
For the series connection collector tabs are punched, polished and coated with sanchem oxide inhibiter.

Edges of the two sections have a bead of blue gasket sealer applied and a sheet of fiberglass laid between the sides with exposed fuse wires.

A copper bar is punched to fit tabs and bolted with ss hardware.

Total length of this one is 38.5".

What will it fit in? Have you been following?  
New cars have only 34" between the shocks.  
Looking for ideas. I can’t easily make 20s batteries as it takes two Tesla3 modules.
