Just brainstorming..........
But I was thinking of a 10 gal. fuel cell but want to keep the stock tank visible and use it to hide the electric Fuel Pump and the Cell.
Anyone else done this or something like it?
gut out the stock tank, open the top off of it, and just bolt it up, cut out the floor and drop a cell through it. Just have to measure

I took my stock tank out for weight reasons, but that was the idea of this design, i made a 1" square tube frame to hold the cell above the trunk floor, and located the vent away from the original tank.
You can see the fuel pump hidden where the inlet used to be, i blocked off the inlet, but left the screw on fuel cap, and put the tank drain into a plate i made covering where the fuel inlet passed through the trunk floor.
I weighed the variables of having a basically useless tank hanging on the back half of my car, and also its alot easier to change gears, or add a wheelie bar without the tank.
