Trunk Mounted Gas Tank Fire Wall
With a trunk mounted gas tank do you worry about a firewall between the trunk & interior? If yes, is there an excepted way for sealing off the trunk area (with gas tank) from the interior area on a glass coupe? My body has 1" square tube bracing, angled back about 15 degrees from vertical. Sheet metal panel to fit, silicone sealed all around? How about MDF board? Not looking to block a fire for any length of time, just contain a tank rupture away from the passenger area to allow time for exit/rescue in the event of a collision.Last edited by rspears; 01-08-2010 at 04:45 PM.

Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
