what other alternatives are there to installing the foam bricks inside a fuel cell.
Even though we run gas, the foam bricks eventually start to deteriote. Any suggestions.

Wiffle balls. Lots and lots of wiffle balls.
Crew Chief "Tip of the day":
Most handling problems can be solved by adjusting the screw-ball. It can be difficult to fine tune at times. Explaining yourself loudly and striking it on top of the helmet with a dead blow hammer usually works well.

Go to Home Depot and get 30' of the black plastic drainage tubing. It comes in 10' rolls and 2 rolls wasn't enough for my 32 gallon cell. Cut to length and stack them in there vertically. The stuff I got has the holes in it, just like the sprinkler hoses.
Make sure you wash it really good before you put it in there.

Just curious where one gets 100 (random guess) wiffle balls?
We used to run them in our fuel cell back in the day, but they stayed in Dad's fuel cell, and mine is empty... for now...Here's my little home on Youtube!

You could probably call them and ask the size of the box. That would help you guess how many boxes you needed.Crew Chief "Tip of the day":
