And, here I am. I can't put a bulkhead between the trunk and the drivers compartment since one does not exist in a wagon. So, I went and purchased a dirt track cell where the cell is inside a metal container and has all the safety check valves and such. The problem you will have is every tech guy views the rules differently. One understood the cell in a metal box thing right away. One wasn't going to let me run without a ground strap, despite the metal can being attached to the car itself. I have had to justify EVERY part of the installation at one time or another. And just to stir things up, how about 40 year old lap belts in a ten second car not getting a second look. In the meantime I get lectured on out of date racing belts in a 13 second car.
