Has anybody measured their gas tank?
 
I'm having fuel problems in my car... the lines are all rusted. I replaced them temporarily, but for a permanant solution I'd like to take the tank out and replace it with a fuel cell. Then I can replace the delivery and return lines with SS Braided hose.

Has anybody measured their fuel tank or put a fuel cell in the stock location? I'd like to start looking for the tank to get so when the snow melts I can put it in. (Yes, it's been snowing all weekend! :mad: )

I don't think you would get a very big fuel cell in there since they are square not custom fitted to the bottom of the car. to put a fuel cell in a 2nd gen you normaly cut out the floor of the truck and weld in some cross braces and have it sorta half in the truck and half below.

Thanks! I was hoping for a different answer, but not expecting any wonderful news like "This part number fits perfect!" ;)

It's not too bad to weld in a container for it. I had to do that for a CRX I built. This time I'm going to get a top drain cell though.
