i am about to get a cell similar to the one you have, how did you plumb it? did you just run a vent-line to the outside or use it as a return line and just use the cap vent? does yours have the corner pickup (circle track tank). how is that on side hills? just trying to get everything figured out before i start throwing out money

I plumbed it with a return line. It has the corner pickup and I have had zero problems with it on steep side angles. It only takes five minutes tops to plumb it in. I can take some pics if ya want.

pics would be great. so you just used the two fittings for send and return lines and the cap as the vent right? thats what i was thinking of doing

if I put that same setup inside my wagoneer (that doesnt have any openings) would it always
smell like gas?

Thats all the sag the fuel cell will get. The supper bling aluminum tanks are what all the POR guys run because the don't like the sag. It doesn't bother me cause I have a budget.
