I found a actual ICE car that was out to set a new hydrogen recorded.

Quote:
The tank has a Type IV rating and uses a plastic bladder wrapped with high strength composite graphite. The tank has a water volume of 87 liters and is rated up to 3,600 psi. At 3,600 psi, the tank holds 590 SCF of hydrogen, which is equivalent to 1.4 gallons of gasoline. At 200 HP, this tank is emptied in about 5 minutes.
From my EFI calcualtor an engine making 200HP at 13.8 A/F with a BSFC of
.37 will consume 6.2 lbs in five mintutes with a cost of $2.50 in gasoline.
