Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but the answer is a hard no. Vintage 
Racer Group, the folks that handle tech for the Lime Rock Historics say 
this about fuel cells:

3.2.4.1. Fuel cells in a metal container are required. FIA FT3 
specification cells, or equal, with
either the certification printed, or FIA hologram bonded to their 
surface, are required. For
fuel cells not contained within the body structure, the bottom of the 
fuel cell should have a
minimum of 6â?? of ground clearance. The mounting must be strong enough to 
resist impact
forces during an accident.

JAZ talks a good game, saying they meet SFI spec 28.1, but that spec is 
a plastic box, no bladder.

I asked the head of tech, someone who shows up with a JAZ cell gets to 
run one event, but your log book gets noted that you have a 
non-conforming fuel cell and it is a one-time exemption.

I just went through this with my TR3, ended up buying a new ATL 108.
