funny thread, lots of hater in here @puma, all your pictures are not available, can you repost them ?
I am curious about your setup. I am also looking for any weight saving I can get.

I wonder if @Anthony has done this to his lightweight car

Water does not leak out but in the case of a rollover and fire when the tank heats up where will the fuel go? Hot exhaust temps. Lack of catalytic converters with 2 step exhaust fire balls.
You do know that gas liquid is not flammable the fumes are.

My 2 cents.

If your going to pull it to save weight pull the 20lb tank too and put an ATL in but you won't like the price of an ATL Tank. Then run 20lbs of Stainless Braided fuel line.

Good to find this thread. I am planning on doing the same thing to my current track car biuld. Simplification and weight removal is my goal. Did you get a weight on the removed components? Any additional issues or advise (PUMA) since you completed the mod?

We removed it on the white race car too. It was pretty easy and straight forward if you drop the tank.
