Fuel Cell Debate
How many of you guys out there are running fuel cells with all your crazy setups? I've read what most of you guys are running under the hood.

The '27 "T" used a standard poly fuel cell with foam filling. Started with an 8 gallon tank, but had to re-engineering thinkgs to stuff in a 16 gallon one so I could go farther than between gas stations (on on every block back then).
The '32 roadster used a custom aluminum tank, made to fit into the old rumble-seat footwell, as the poly tanks would have used up all the available "trunk" room.
The '65 Corvette will probably use a poly cell with foam filling, but I may go with a custom aluminum tank with foam filling to get more gas volume. I don't expect 16 galons (biggest poly tank I can fit with the narrowed rear) won't go very far.

Re: Fuel Cell Debate (xfactor974)
i thought this post was gonna be about hydrogen :( 
my school does millions of research into fuel cells every year. they do a lot with Ballard Power and Xcellsis. in fact, this is the line of work i am heading towards.
