Brant; how much taller is your fuel cell over the sway bar. Do you think that making a custom cell that stepped over the sway bar so it could sit further back would be worth the trouble? I'm planning on doing what you did eventually.

I'm going to dad's house this weekend and can measure it drew.

but I think its only about 1.5 inches... not much anyways.

I don't think it would really be worth it.
because only the top couple of gallons would even be moved rearward. Plus I doubt that I will hardly ever run the cell that full.

I went with a 15gallon cell, because we have 2 drivers..
if it was a 12 gallon cell I don't think the cell would be above the bar..
