Default Fuel tank location problem

I have a small sopwith pup,that i am converting over to ic,but the battery/tank location is giving me trouble.
The tank has been located central to cg point,but the battery will not go far enough forward,due to the side mounted engine ,engine bearers,what i need to do is remove the bottom bearer,to allow battery to reach firwall.but how do yo support the the bottom engine bearer,only having a small amount entering the firewall?,i suppose a wedge glued between firewall and bearer would work,but how strong would that be?

Any suggestions
