Default Rick's Tank, Fuel Cell or?

I'm putting together a 406 w/ EFi

What's the best solution for ease of install and setup, balanced w/ cost?
is a fuel cell fine, or just buy a Rick's / Rock Valley and be done with it?
anyone that's done either or both chime in...thanks

I have a ricks tank for my ls swap. Let me say...you get what you pay for

The quality is superb and it was around a 2 week wait time. Install is simple...nothing a person with a tool set can't do.

here's a picture of mine:

I'd go with the Rick's tank, I've seen a lot of cars using them in the forum, and, well, they're a lot more discrete than a fuel cell, and unless you're going to just race it, well, the tank is more for street use and show. more pleasant to the eye. So, your choice, personally I don't like fuel cells.
GIMME FUEL GIMME FIRE GIMME THAT WHICH I DESIRE! UUH!

I recently found out about these SPECTRA fuel tanks (in tank EFI pumps) - musclerodz.com & www.rockauto.com sell them - I don't have one but I'm looking into them - there is some talk about them at PT.com
