I just got my fuel cell. Its a 5 gallon aluminum cell. I will take pictures of it tommrrow to show, and pictures of the inside of car. Now I am not sure where I should mount the cell. Does anyone have pictures of where you mounted your fuel cell. I am planning on running Honda Challenge, so I been reading the NASA rule book. So if anyone has any pictures of a NASA approved installed fuel cell.

The safest way would be to cut out the shape of the cell out of the floor. Build a cage around the cell, drop the cell in, and build some sort of firewall.

 

Being that i'm so damn bored, i found a few pics

On my CRX, I cut the floor area above the stock tank out and made a full steel box bottom to put my 10 gallon tank in shown here.

I have an aluminum box over the top to serve as the mandatory bulkhead but don't have any photos of it completed that I know of. I'll see what I can dig up.

Are you sure that 5 gallons is going to be enough? I am surprised with my recent fuel consumption and think that you will be filling a 5 gallon cell nearly every single session.

Are you serious?

Mine must have been at least twice that.

Is that lapping or racing?

 

racing....

So you are saying you would burn thru a FULL TANK of gas in 1 hour? It wasn't a stock or ITA spec D16A6 then....
