Default Fuel cell, pump, etc help

Hey guys, I am ditching the stock tank and want to go to a 5 gallon fuel cell. I want a fuel system that is capable of handling a stroker motor on a healthy nitrous shot. My question is...what is the best route to take as far as which cell, pump, etc. thanks.

you definately sure you want a 5 gallon cell...

rather than that you could run a single 255 pump for feeding the engine, and a standalone fuel system for nitrous...where you could run some race gas.

or a sumped tank with a big external?

Well, I am not set on a 5 gallon, but I want to get rid of the stock tank, and just run one fuel cell for the whole thing.

you could run a steel 98 tank like i am with a sump..or two intank walbro's..

no need for a fuel cell unless youre trying to drop weight.

I'm running a summit 16 gallon foam filled sumped plastic tank with a "Y " fitting to a 60 micron filter then to a 72 GPH Carter 6 psi rotary pump to a Airtex E2315 pump to 10 micron filter to an Aeromotive regulator. 8AN lines to the Carter, 6AN forward. Everything is mounted in the trunk so very short return line (6AN).
Works for me
