Fuel Cell Cage - Lateral-g Forums

Track Junky · #1 01-05-2013, 02:24 PM

I have an ATL Fuel Cell on the way and was researching fuel cell cages. I attached this link for anyone else that might be interested. Once I get started I will add how we decided to mount it on my build thread.

Actually this means you will be hacking up my trunk floor.

Yes you do and that will be the easy part.

Right there with you G. Which particular cell did you get? There are so dang many options.

I already had the hole in mine with the plastic tank and I found the used Fuel Safe tank with about the identical dimensions so we'll drop it in.

Good link - thanks!

I thought I'd seen that article or one similar. Here is a link I had saved on my endless spreadsheet:

I got lucky and found a brand new SP108 that is FIA aprroved and FT3 rated for $389 shipped. He had bought it for his race car but ended up not using it. Saved me close to $250. I wanted to go with the Fuel Safe because of the shallower depth dimension in the 8 gallon but they only have one pick up. The ATL's have dual duck foot pick ups.

Nice score

Thanks Rob. I thought for sure I'd be picking it up from Pitstopusa after talking to you. Gave ebay a go the next day and there it was. Good thing there aren't a whole lot of racers interested in 8 gallon cells. I was the only bidder.
