A suggestion and maybe you have not finished it yet. Install a ground strap from the filler on the fuel cell to the cell mounting tab. Not every tech person is going to point it out, but they could. On my car, I have a fuel cell identical to yours and tech asked me to add a ground strap at the filler because it has a gasket between it and the tank. His concern was, we all use plastic fuel jugs, and they can have a static discharge. The rubber gasket could isolate the filler when pouring fuel in and have a higher potential for a static discharge. Sounds like BS, but if it makes my car safer why not.

On an aluminum cell, straps are not needed. The tabs are fine.

What are you doing on wiring the 2 step and line lock?

Sean
Thank you, I do have a ground under the tank. Will it be enough or does it need to run to the top?
The line lock is wired to the button on the shifter and the 2-step is wired thru the clutch pedal.
