Does anyone recommend one brand of fuel cell over another? I'm definitely going with aluminum, just didn't know if it was ok to order a plain jane one from Summit Racing, or something different.

I'm definitely trying to stay in the 200 dollar bracket.

Wow, nobody has any input? Maybe I should be posting this on a dragster site instead?

I hesitate to reply because I'm not expert enough on fuel cells to give advice. All I know is that I've bought the Summit Racing units and they were good quality and worked very well - especially considering your budget.

Both Summit and Jegs offer quality units at a reasonable price. Talk to one of their Tech Reps , you'll need to have information on size and filler neck location, fuel injection (larger pump opening) and type of fittings, they should be able to fix you right up.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

When I read fuel cell I think of the ones hotrodders put in their trunk or in the case of a truck on the bed near the cab.. Are you wanting a fuel tank?
