i heard you need a fire wall between the cell and the driver are there any specs on how thick the wall is and what its made out of????

 

there are no rules as of right now bunjee cord it

 

so there is no rule of a fire wall or anything???

 

Yes there are general NHRA rules for having a fuel cell. That is a safety rule and not a class rule, so that won't change.

Tanks: When permitted by class regulations, fuel tanks located
outside body and/or frame must be enclosed in a steel tube frame
constructed of minimum 1 1/4-inch O.D. x .065-inch chrome moly
or .118-inch mild-steel tubing. All fuel tanks must be isolated from
the driver’s compartment by a firewall, completely sealed to
prevent any fuel from entering the driver’s compartment. All fuel
tanks must have a pressure cap and be vented outside of car
body. A positive-locking screw-on fuel-tank cap is mandatory on all
cars. Insulated fuel tanks prohibited. When used, fuel cells must
have a metal box protecting the part of the fuel cell that is outside
of body lines or trunk floor, excluding hose-connection area in rear.
Non-metallic fuel cells or tanks must be grounded to frame.


Top it off with a SFI 28.1 spec cell and you will have no problems as long as the class you run allows cells....
