thats funny right there!

figure out how much fuel you need for one run and double or triple it. that is all you need. why would you want to carry more fuel than two runs could possibly take. i don't think theres a stocker out there that runs on 2.5 gallons per run? if your fuel doesn't pass then you have to drain 5- 10 gallons, that not cool. removing the foam only works if you keep it topped up. i run a 1 gallon cell. my 350 uses 1/3 third of it per run if i have to idle behing a jr. on the return road. i have made three passes back to back to back without waiting inline or being slowed down on the return road - no fill ups. Aluminum looks nicer, plastic is lighter.
