Scott, the fuel cell is a semi custom one from ATL. It's based on a standard SU117 but is modified to put the fill plate in the center. The SU117 is one of the higher end steel cells with the re-enforced bladder. The surge tank is an ATL with 3 flap doors and the pump inside model CFD600-HP. The fill plate was modified to have dash 8AN fittings with no sharp bend fittings anywhere. The setup is a good way to prevent fuel starvation at any condition, interestingly, it also makes less noise than some factory cars.
I may put the stock tank back in, most Cobra buyers probably just see the cell as ugly and do not care about the design attributes. BTW, your car is awesome, the idea of a 385 series is way cool. I remember thumbing through automotive repair manuals as a kid and the Ford 460 was always the one with the biggest bore/shortest stroke. Next was my favorite, Buick 455 with a 4.312 bore, ahh...
