Here's one I did about 6 years ago. The other cell was for the engine that ended up not being used and was removed...

With the bumper cover on how big of a PITA is it to fill those up?

It was simple to fill. I used a funnel and a 1 gal fuel jug to fill it.

This is my current standalone. I still use the same funnel and 1 gal. fuel jug to fill it.
Both setups were/are NHRA legal.




I highly recommend staying away from washer bottles for a fuel cell...

Ya I dont think washer cells are the best either, especially for carrying 110 or higher octane.

That setup looks great... Really that is a bad ace setup.
