how many mpgs does the motor get?

Mine gets less than 8 during testing... assuming about 5-6 at race speed.

12 is plenty. Until it's not.
I've never thought fuel was a good place to save weight. Not to mention it's much nicer when your crew doesn't have to go to bufu remote fuel stops.

mostly considering for fitment of a cell in the first place.

it is a rotary so assume horrible on stage mpg.

There is still a slim chance the oe tank will fit back in.... but at about 1/3 to 1/4 fuel it starts to slosh and cut out.
