I'm pretty sure HM1002 has a fuel cell but I don't know what size it is. That would be question Mike or Rich could answer.

The fuel cell is 16 gallon. No one has fit a larger gas tank that I am aware of.

Hi,
From what I can recall, the tank fits inside the frame rails and the top is about even with the trunk pan. Any additional size would have to be on the bottom side of the tank, if that makes sense. Anyhow, the problem I see is that a) The tank would hang down and be seen from behind. b) With the car as low as it is, hitting or dragging on a big bump or steep incline (driveway) could be a concern.
