Fuel tank choice and size for a stocker

[Mike Pearson]

If your car is close on weight use a small cell. I have a 3 gallon cell in my car and usually run 2 gallons in it. I can get real close to minimum weight with a gallon. I have a Jaz plastic cell. No foam. No sense carrying more fuel than needed.

I put a Rhodes 4 gal alum. no foam cell in my 68 Chevelle earlier this year. about $175 at Summit.

Good morning to al,
I put a 5 gallon cell in my car 1969 Chevy Nova body just at the time NHRA allowed fuel cells in Stockers. Good thing at the time my second stock gas tank rusted out. Also, good idea to leave the foam out, the foam came apart in my cell. Just recently a circle racer that I do work for had a flooding problem with his Q-Jet equipped Bomber car, guess what was in his fuel bowl, besides fuel ............
The smaller cells don't splash the fuel around like an OEM size tank does, besides being safer, and I can make 3 runs safely without filling up after each run. Just my Two Cents from my little corner in the world.
