Has anyone had problems getting their rigs inspected when running a fuel cell? I have an 88YJ that needs the leaking gas tank replaced. Want to go ahead and run the RCI 2161 cell so i'll be ready for the rear stretch coming up. I only have to do the safety inspection on mine...will not having a "stock" tank be a problem if I mount behind the rear seat or sink it into the tub like this:

I have not had a problem either.
 
I had the same fuel cell in the back of my CJ and never had a problem getting it inspected either
 
I had a fuel cell indirectly cause me to fail. Everything was going smooth and the dude looked at the back of the mustang and saw the cell with lines and said I bet you modified the exhaust....
 
Most places wont hassle you about a fuel cell if everything else will pass. All depends on your county and how much trouble the inspector has gotten into in the past. Had a few buddies with "streetable" drag cars run them and never had an issue.
 
thanks guys!
