The ATL FUEL CELLS RaceCell is a 5-gallon (20-liter) competition fuel cell built to the FT3-1999 safety standard for sanctioned motorsport. It suits builders running road race, circuit, autocross, and endurance platforms where a sanctioning body requires an approved crashworthy cell. At roughly 10 x 10 x 17 inches, it fits tight chassis pockets and works as either a main or auxiliary tank. The plastic construction trims weight against steel boxes, and the full foam baffling controls fuel slosh under hard cornering and braking. For competitors who need certified safety hardware without a heavy aluminum enclosure, this is a straightforward answer.
Construction uses an ATL-565 plastic alloy body with internal foam baffling that does double duty: it suppresses anti-slosh movement that starves a pickup mid-corner, and it limits explosion risk in a crash by filling the vapor space. Plumbing runs through two -8 AN outlets, an -8 AN return line, and a -6 AN vent, giving you flexible options for feed and return routing on carbureted or fuel-injected setups. A rollover vent valve keeps fuel contained if the car inverts. Listed weight is about 9.5 lbs, well under comparable steel-cased cells in this capacity class. It's rated for gasoline, including race gas with up to 15% blended ethanol content, so it handles most pump and competition fuels you'd run.
Pick this cell when a tech inspector wants to see an FT3 stamp and you want to keep mass low and centered. The 5-gallon size works for sprint races, time trials, and as a reserve cell in a multi-tank fuel system. Pair it with a matching fuel cell cap and a vent fitting to finish the install, or step up to one of our larger sport cells if your class allows more capacity. Browse the full air and fuel catalog for pumps, regulators, and filters to build out the rest of the system.
Yes. The RaceCell is built to the FT3-1999 standard recognized by international and club sanctioning bodies. The crashworthy plastic body and foam-filled interior meet the approval most tech inspectors require for road race, circuit, and endurance competition.
It comes with two -8 AN outlets, an -8 AN return line, and a -6 AN vent. The dual outlets give you flexible plumbing for either a carbureted feed or a return-style fuel-injection system, and the vent ties into a rollover valve.
The cell is rated for gasoline, including race gas blended with up to 15% ethanol content. That covers most pump and competition gasolines used in motorsport. It is not intended for methanol or other alcohol fuels outside that blend limit.
The full foam fill serves two jobs. It controls fuel slosh so the pickup stays fed during hard cornering and braking, and it fills the vapor space inside the cell to suppress fuel ignition in the event of a crash or impact.
The cell measures roughly 10 x 10 x 17 inches tall and weighs about 9.5 lbs. The plastic alloy body keeps it lighter than comparable steel-cased cells in the 5-gallon class, which helps with weight placement in the chassis.
