So is it as simple as buying a fuel cell and putting it in or is there more to it? Anyone have any leads to where the best place to get one from for the least?

I pulled my tank and a little bird whispered in my ear saying I should get a fuel cell. So I am looking to see if I should or not.

Though I love the Patrick fuel cell I am hoping to get something smaller and less expensive.

I am thinking I really only need a 10 gallon at most. I have heard of six gallon but not too sure about that for when I go the the track. I am mostely concerned about AX though.

Jeebus, I read the title of the thread and thought you kids were talking about Hydrogen Fuel Cells ... got me all excited.

Screw that Electric 914 I want one that runs on WATER!

Okay, after looking at prices and such I think this will all have to wait a year or so. I had no idea they were so much for everything.

AutoX...hmm a 1 minute run...maybe 5 minutes total idling...

1-2 gallons should do it.
Look at dune buggy tanks.

Yeah, but I do drive my car tere and it is about 100 miles. So I figure 5 gallon tank is the smallest I would need. Don't know if there are other places that are more affordable but I figure it is about 2k to do everything and I'm not going to be able to do that for a while. Need to pay for other important jobs on my car...
