Re: Guys who removed their stock gas tank?
GAS TANK
Must be correct year, make, and model for car used, with stock fuel inlet and outlet locations. Must be in stock location; fuel line and pickup may be resized. Fuel cell permitted; maximum capacity 16 gallons. If fuel cell is used, OEM gas tank must be removed, and a firewall of minimum .032-inch aluminum or .024-inch steel must be installed to totally seal driver compartment from fuel cell. Trunk floor may be modified to accommodate fuel-cell sump.
STK
Section 11A, page 5 Stock Cars
Where OEM gas tank is in the trunk floor, area occupied by OEM tank may be replaced with material equal to or heavier than OEM floor. If OEM gas tank is used, it must remain unaltered.
I read that to say if you use a fuel cell the gas tank must be removed. In the Ford a new trunk floor needs to be used and it can be modified for fuel cell sump.
