Default anyone using a fuel cell?

jsut wondering if anyone has dropped the fuel take for a fuel cell. my truck is turning into a track and very little street use truck and I was wanting to put a 12 gal fuel cell in the bed. Just wondering if anyone has done this and how it was completed? what parts are needed?

I put a 15 gallon aluminum in a few weeks ago. It was a pretty easy install, I have a walbro inline 255lph pump freeding the fuel and I ran high pressure rubber fuel line up to were the aluminum lines are. It works really nice, I did it to hopefully get a better launch, to be able to run dual exhaust back further, and so I dont scrape the fuel tank on the ground anymore.

Good question, also where did you mount the fuel cell?? Middle of the bed? To the side? All the way back, by the gate?
