20 Gallon Jazz Fuel Cell with:

foam blocks

fuller level sender

2 x 10AN sumped feed lines

1 x 8AN return line

1 x 6AN safety ball valve roll over vent

Powder coated red.

The supply and return lines connect in the passenger side wheel well. The position of the fuel cell in the car does slightly raise the center of gravity but was necessary because there just was no other place to mount it. The cooling system takes up most of the stock loaction. Thers is now an insulated fire wall just in front of the fuel cell separating it from the cooling system. I am considering adding a through-hood flip top fuel filler.

The fuel cell had two 6AN ports on top that interfered with the hood closing so I needed to create a aerodynamic hump to provide the needed clearance. Well while searching for just the perfect item, lunch time came around, and in the kitchen I discovered two new Stainless Steel giant spoons. Hmmmm...

So after they mysteriously went missing from the kitchen I cut the handles off and ground them flat on the bench grinder. A little jigsaw action on the hood and a little welding an I had my needed clearances..
