Hi Kyle,

Fuel cells are avaiable from most racing suppliers, Summit, Pegasus, etc. 
Most of them are rectangular and most racers cut a hole in the spare tire 
area to mount them as you want the weight as low as possible. If you want 
one that doesn't require extensive modifications I have seen cells that fit 
inside the spare tire well, but they were really expensive ISTR ~$800-$900. 
If you're planning to race the car your choice will be dictated by the rule 
book so check with the scrutineers before buying anything. If you're not 
racing I belive Moss or Vicky Brit has an aluminum replacement for sale.

Cheers,
