: Aluminum Fuel Cell..To Foam Or Not ?

The more people I talk to in the fuel cell business, the more confused I get.
Is anyone out there running one of those 19 gal. flat bottom alum. cells without a baffle as a street driver? I'm concerned about fuel slosh, but the guy at RCI told me that foam is just for racing, will break down over time and needs replaced every 1-2 years.
I thought the 19 gal flat-bottomed cell looked like a good way to avoid cutting up the trunk.
Is a foam baffle necessary for a street car that will not see any time on the strip?
