It's the most proven solution, and you can remove it as one unit and install in your next car.

Radium Engineering has a lot of universal Fuel Cell Surge Tank options for this, I'd start there.
Would you say that is over kill for a slightly modified ZL1 with intake, headers and a tune? From 650hp to 720hp(ish)

Do you think a surge tank alone would be enough without the need for a fuel cell? (If I'm getting any of the terminology mixed up feel free to point that out as I'm not really sure how a fuel cell and a surge tank work together)
