Fuel Cell 16 Gal w/Red Can

The RCI Fuel Cell 16 Gal with Red Can (SKU RCI1162C) is a purpose-built fuel cell designed for circle track racing and high-performance motorsports applications. This 16-gallon fuel cell combines structural durability with motorsports-grade safety features, featuring AN male outlets for fuel delivery and ventilation that integrate seamlessly into precision fuel system configurations.

Constructed from steel with a red powder-coat finish, the RCI fuel cell measures 26 inches wide by 18.5 inches deep by 11.5 inches tall—dimensions engineered to fit behind seats or in trunk compartments without compromising vehicle geometry or weight distribution. The 8 AN male outlet and 8 AN male vent provide standardized motorsports connections compatible with professional fuel system infrastructure. At 40.95 lbs when empty, the fuel cell's weight must be accounted for in racing fuel load calculations, where every pound affects handling balance and compliance with sanctioning body regulations.

Circle track racers, drag racing teams, and off-road competitors rely on RCI fuel cells to provide secure fuel containment under sustained lateral G-forces and impact conditions. The red powder-coat finish offers corrosion resistance and visual identification in technical inspection contexts. This fuel cell is specified for drivers and crews who require certified fuel storage solutions meeting motorsports safety standards for amateur and semi-professional racing environments.

RCI fuel cells are recognized in the motorsports industry for consistency in capacity and connection compatibility. The 16-gallon specification provides extended race-day range while maintaining a compact footprint compared to larger capacity units, making this model a popular choice for single-seat race cars and performance vehicles where space is at a premium.
