Here's a reply I got from ATL on Sprite fuel cell questions.
This is a very cool solution... an aluminum boxed cell that mounts in the
stock location and allows the stock filler neck location. It holds 8
gallons, and appears to be a much better solution that the cells that fits a
bladder to the stock Sprite tank...( as its capacity is only about 5
gallons). Price is not cheap at $750, but allows you to not have to sink a
cell through the trunk floor (like the Dead Rat Bastard). It would be ideal
if I was to fit a cell to "The Bishop" as well.
I'm not sure what the real world benefit is from a center of gravity
standpoint. Any opinions there?
