Is a DB1 fuel cell something special or will a generic wedge cell work?

They were specifically made for the DB1 by Aero Tech Services http://www.aerotechservicesinc.com/
Last time I checked they still service/re-certify them.

Good people. They do actually re-certify DB1 cells they told me a couple of years ago. Plus they are not unreasonable on price.

As of a couple months ago Aero Tech Services is no longer doing fuel cell work. I got a cell done last fall for an RT5 (and one for a DB1 a few months just before that) and I think that's the end of the line. I forget the gentleman's name who owns it but the conversation we had was that it costs too much (insurance, etc) to be in the business anymore. It's a shame, they were some of the best cells I ever worked with.

Premier in the UK, Eagle in Wisconsin... both will do a fine job and make you the black rubber cell you are looking for.
Closer to home is Harmon down in Corona but they do the more rigid yellow style of cell. If the cell you're replacing doesn't need the ultimate flexibility of the black rubber style (the DB1 cell for example isn't difficult to remove/install so could easily be made like this), I would give Harmon a call. They are really nice to work with, a small business that does a great job. Cost and timelines are also very reasonable working with them.

The last time I checked they were no longer making custom fuel cells.

I have bought 5 fuel cells from Pyrotech all with good results. On 3 of them I had them reuse old ATL hardware
with considerable cost savings.
Fred Clark Caracal cars in Jacksonville is a dealer
Neil Porter supplied me a DB1 call 3 years ago and the maker was Fuel Safe 800 433 6524
Neil has the dimensions. Those I do not have
