4-bar / back half the HemiDenny / HDK way

My fuel cell is actually going to be mounted in a cage, beneath the trunk floor and with a SCCA approved fuel cell firewall between that. It’s also got an impact bladder rated for 180 mph, set me back a small fortune but we share the same concerns. Mine is also set up to use the factory fill location and vent out will be routed to outside the car, just haven’t decided where exactly

I understand....but the big difference is you obviously build cars destined for the track. While I supply a lot of front ends for drag racers, other than the restoration of The California Flash, all my personal and shop builds are 100% street cars. I like to tie the front / rear together and add necessary strength wherever it makes functional sense, but stay away from rollbars and rollcages. I do not want to drive around with a helmet on, it is not good for my hair. Last thing I want to do is have a street car with the weight of a tank.

Incorporating a high $$$ fuel cell along with all the other safety requirements of a competitive race car is just not my cup of tea, however I enjoy watching innovative builders like you that take up that challenge.

Hope all is well and have a happy 4th.
