Tank Shell 16 Gallon Molded Inserts

The SALDANA Tank Shell 16 Gallon Molded Inserts is a purpose-built fuel cell designed for micro and mini class race vehicles requiring a compact, reliable fuel storage solution with a top outlet configuration. Engineered by SALDANA, a specialist in motorsport fuel systems, this 16-gallon capacity tank integrates molded insert technology to optimize weight distribution, minimize sloshing during hard cornering, and maintain consistent fuel delivery under extreme acceleration and deceleration demands.

The molded insert design creates internal baffles and compartments that dampen fuel movement, critical for vehicles competing in Outlaw class racing where lateral and longitudinal g-forces test every component. The top outlet positioning simplifies installation in space-constrained engine bays typical of micro and mini builds, allowing gravity feed or low-pressure pump configurations without complex rerouting. At 22.33 pounds when empty, the tank balances structural integrity with the weight sensitivity demanded by entry-level racing classes where every pound affects lap times and fuel economy.

This fuel cell addresses the specific needs of bracket racers, hobby competitors, and off-track enthusiasts building small-displacement race cars where factory fuel systems cannot handle sustained high-performance driving. The 16-gallon capacity suits vehicles with efficient engines that prioritize range over fuel load weight—typical for classes where fuel cell capacity is regulated or driver preference favors lighter overall vehicle mass. Installation dimensions of 26 x 16 x 43 inches fit tight engine compartments and frame rails common in Outlaw and micro sprint applications.
