Is it okay to run an aluminum fuel cell ? also do i need to do anything special with the venting of the cell ? and can i get some recommendations on a fuel pump and regulator ... I'm running a Holley blue pump now dead headed with the junk regulator that comes with it I wanna go to a return style fuel system . this is for a 406 SBC .

I haven't had any issues with my fuel cell... I just bought some aluminum sheet and made mine.. Nothing special about it... It always has some fuel in it.... I still looks like the day I first started running E85.....I been using the same Holley Blue pump I had when running gasoline and the regulator is one with a stainless steel mesh element.....

Yeah the aluminum cell is fine,but if this is a healthy 406,you'll probably want at least a Holley black pump with a regulator setup for alcohol......I know lots of people that run a deadhead regulator and get along just fine this way.......Oh yeah,seems like 6.5 psi fuel pressure works great.....
