Default What Fuel Cell to Buy? C4 Challenge Car

Want to buy a Fuel Cell that will fit in the normal location. Will fab brackets to hold in place. Want to use normal fuel filler location. Will make lines that will attach to regular fuel lines.

I don't want to butcher my Challenge Car but want to run SVRA. They require a fuel cell.

I have had ATL fuel cells in two C4s (86 & 90) and have been very satisfied with both. Both cells are 22 gal.

If you real want to go in the factory location, Fuel Safe can turn your factory tank into a fuel cell.

Thanks. I have a friend who did this. $3k range. Trying to avoid that cost if possible.

Thanks again for giving me the input

Brett!

I remember there being a kit for that but it was quite awhile ago. I think it was Melrose. The same place that makes tops.

Melrose make the mount for the 22 gallon, they should all be able to make them still, but you have to call and ask.
