some tanks have them inside the cell, or ytou can get away with foam filled one's

but as i got a std tank and the fuel pickup in my tank is on the drivers side, every time i go on track and go on right hand beds (which is most of the time..lol )

i get fuel starvation

GTiR's suffer from fuel starvation when they lean to the left

Reckon a Foam filled Fuel Cell would do the job?

lol. typical you aim to have a cheap toy and look what happens. Funnily enough I am about to start a new project and again I am aiming to do it cheaply. I have already bought the 2 donor vehicles but although they have been cheap I bet I end up running way over budget when I start and see some fancy stuff I like the look of.
