Which side to mount front fuel cell for best launch ???
Trying to decide which side to mount my front fuel cell as i am switching to belt drive pump and Ron's Terminator Alcohol set up. 4 gallon cell s/b 40 lbs full.
I thought the passenger side so as to equalize the front wieghts as drivers side is 62 lbs heavier, but then I thought maybe the drivers side to counteract the torque that picks left side up???
Advice please!
Thanks,
Arnie

i'm interested in hearing opinions on this also. i'm working on a blown/alcohol injected set up for my camaro and i'm putting a 3 gallon surge tank up front.

I have mine on the passengers side just because it has a shorter line to the pump, and there was more room there.

Almost always seem them on the right front, can't remember seeing one on the left. I suppose everyone is thinking that's a good place to help get some more weight on the right side to counteract driver weight.

This is a bit off topic vegaracer, but all this time I thought you were running a blower under that hat. Silly me. Nice build :)vegaracer wrote:I have mine on the passengers side just because it has a shorter line to the pump, and there was more room there.

No blower. But maybe a turbo next year

When my buddy put his Camaro on alcohol his cell was in the center. He made his own cell and mounts maybe thats why he put it there.
