Fuel Cell... Foam or No foam?

GTO/GN · 07-12-2009, 08:47 PM

I am thinking about purchasing a 8 gallon fuel cell for the Buick. It is a track only car. I see the cells with foam and cells without foam. Does a drag car really need the foam?

I vote, no foam for a "drag only" car.
I don't like the deterioration factor....

I asked this same question last year some time and the response
was the same as you have received.....no foam.

Also fuel filters, about 50%/50% on just filter the fuel as you are filling the fuel cell.

Well, I guess this isn't going to take much thought... No Foam it is..
Thanks for the feed back, guys
