Fuel cell ideas - Lateral-g Forums

I'm getting my ducks in a row on installing a fuel cell in a 71 Nova. Just wondering if anyone has pictures to give me some ideas. The car is mini-tubbed with C/E's formed frame rails, I'd like to keep the cell as flush mounted to the trunk floor as possible using a 45 degree neck so I can keep the stock filler neck behind the license plate.
Just looking for pictures maybe to give me some neat build ideas.

just a good street tank. I used a rick hot rod tank, stainless, A1000 pump mounted inside, one of their stealth tanks. The 2 AN fittings are for fuel and return, the two terminals are for power and ground.

I don't have one yet but have researched a lot. Ricks with the internal a1000 seems to be the best. That is what I am going to go with. baffles, stainless and stock fueling point behind plate.

Thanks, guys. I'll look into the Ricks.

That looks nice. I put a plastic cell in my trunk and wish I had checked around more. I picked it up for 100.00 but I do not like it at all. I would not recommend what I did.
