And a nice Red to go with the Cherry Bomb paint scheme

What are the dimensions on the fuel cell?  Will it slip in between the frame or are you going to mount it in the bed?

Length (in)      26.000 in.
Width (in)      18.000 in.
Height (in)      9.500 in.

As for the mounting, I am taking it down to the fab shop soon and we shall see where it fits. I had to push the car to the side yesterday to fix my mom's van. So sad.....

Yeah got from summit because of cheap and fast shipping. I may still try and use th intake pump but picked that in line up because it was on sale.

Sorry to go back a couple posts...  Have any other racers installed their fuel cell yet?? I'm ready to buy one, this looks like it might be the ticket, just figured I'd go with the standard issue on this item..

Hey man, FWIW I think this is the one I'm going to get for the Liberty Overland entry... but I won't be working on it until after Moab.

My fabricator is pretty busy right now and we haven't gotten to the install yet. I will keep you guys updated as we work on it(mostly)

Got a couple deliveries, more coming

Got a little prototyping done. Yes I am planning on replacing the old tach (hopefully). Still waiting on a few parts to finish this part.

Brown came last week!

BIGZOOK, please contact Eric before you install your fuel cell, I think it may not meet the rule requirements.  I almost bought the same one but not all the fittings are bonded to the outer skin, only the fill is.  Check out the rules, I'd hate to see you get it all installed and have it not pass inspection!

That's a good catch! I didn't notice that in the picture... I'm getting confirmation on this question. Please hold...

-Eric

Yeah, thanks for the heads up on that. Reading the rules it appears you are correct, Hopefully not. May have a brand new fuel cell for sale soon!

I just heard back and your cell is acceptable Greg... I showed them two potential models and they said, ok...

Below are the pics of the two models, yours and an RCI 16 gallon model 1162C

Hey Greg - do you have the p/n for that cell you bought? I'm going to start a "where to get safety gear helpful guide" type thread in the Zukiworld Challenge sub-forum.

Thanks, Eric

Thanks for getting that cleared up Eric. I posted the part # along with demensions on a previous page. I would find it for you but i am stuck on the couch with a back injury and forced to do all my internet on robins ipad. Are those the only 2 acceptable cells or just the 16 gallon versions?

Sorry to hear that you hurt your back, so when your up and moving again bring the race car to the shop so we can get done.

Sounds good Bob. Hopefully I will be healed by next week. I will stop by or call ya when I am moving around.
