anybody running a fuel cell?

So I've come to a cross road, and my choices are to replace the stock fuel tank with a stock fuel tank. So that's the easiest option. My other alternative would be to opt for a racing fuel cell. Which in a stock celi is kind of pointless. The argument I can make for the upgrade would be that ultimately, with the plans I have for the car I would put a fuel cell in it anyway.

My question concerning the fuel cell... Where's a good place to mount it? I would think the hatch would be the best place. Then I would delete the the filler neck, shave the gas door when I do the body work, and Pop the the hatch to fill the tank o.g. style. Would I be able to use the stock intank assembly or would I need to uprade that stuff as well? So obviosly I will lose practicality points and trunk space, but meh... what the hell.

*Edit* this just occured to me... for the sake of center of gravity maybe the stock location would be the best mointing point. the instalation would be harder and I would have to figure out the refill method.

Any Input is appreciated:

Oh nah, I don't have a vert. I have a gts liftback. I'm just using the vert sig cause I thought it was funny.

and you are right about the center of gravity, I wouldn't want my upgrade to be a downgrade.

I'll probably just go with a stocker, def the easiest.

 

Yeah if I cut a hole and welded in a pan with like a 1 foot drop to keep the tank low that would be schweet!!! But I don't have the skills or tools to pull that off

 

Ok I've given this Idea a fair share of consideration...

FAIL! stock ftw, for now anyways.

Mafix, I just pm'd you bout that tank you got.
