fuel cell on street

I don't know alot about fuel cells.
I have always been uncomfortable with the stock fuel tank setup on my 73 911. It looks like the first thing to get hit in a front crash.
How does a fuel cell work?
What would be the safety benefits on the street?
What would be a good one?

Thanks,
Adam

In my opinion ATL is the best, also very expensive. To have all the confort of a regular tank your looking at about $1800 plus all the extras. It might end up costing over 2K.
If you think it's unsafe from the factory, think about all the people who put fiberglass bumpers and don't reinstall the crash bar?

There are alot of cheaper fuel cells out there ( Jaz, etc) What are these brands missing? They have the foam baffle. Is it the rubber lining they are missing?
