they sell fuel cells without bottom sumps so you can run the lines anywhere you want really, or just look where the room is and with the AN~ line you can really snake this stuff around, it shouldnt be a problem.

No direct fit cells. A 1LE tank had better baffling for cornering but not for drags. buy a cell and start fitting. I was able to get a 16 gallon cell in the back of mine.

I had 2 NPT bungs welded onto the back bottom of my tank. Works fine.
