That is a difficult question for me. For as long as I have specialized in fuel systems, I have been opposed to fuel cells and never put much thought into them. My feelings are that a large container is a large container... and before I would fabricate all over my car to install a fuel cell, I would just open the stock fuel tank and simply solve the problems, then close it back up and re-install it. This allows you to also stay with the fuel in the factory location which is safer in collisions and better placement of the weight. The only way to use this location otherwise, is a completely custom fabricated fuel cell. But my feelings are still that there is already a fuel tank of the perfect shape for that location that came in the car from the factory, and simply needs a little thought and fabrication to clear up the issues.
