On the non-homologated car, the capacity is capped by the Appendix J and location is "as it was, so it should be".

Given that a non-homologated car should be shown to be of a correct, period specification - encompassing technical details of the engine, drivetrain, braking systems - why is it that the App J capacity can be used as the tank size for non-homologated cars? Isn't tank size another performance relevant technical detail that should be evidenced in the application process? In the same vein, it seems strange to me that gear ratios are also excluded from the HTP for non-homologated cars.
