Gas Tank Protection

I recall seeing an article on the forum showing how someone had fabricated a protective cage around his fuel tank. I've searched for it without success. Anyone remember it?

No cigar.

I'm sure the TVR-S fuel tank placement is every bit as safe as the Ford Pinto (for those of us old enough to remember its propensity to burst into flames upon rear impact).

The article described bracing in the trunk that would protect the fuel tank. It could have been quite some time ago ...

I suppose it depends on application.

Maybe I could swap in a Cummins diesel.
