A power plant () having a pair of substantially identical fuel cell stacks (), each having an oxidant or fuel inlet/outlet manifold () identical to the inlet/outlet manifold of the other stack, each inlet/outlet manifold mounted on the same side of the corresponding stack as the other inlet/outlet manifold on the other stack (the right side herein). Inlet/outlet plumbing is disposed at the end of one of the stacks () between the inlet/outlet manifolds (), the plumbing including a T-like transition () between a supply pipe () and an inlet tube () that feeds the inlets of both of the inlet/outlet manifolds (). At each inlet/outlet manifold, the side which is not connected to plumbing is blocked off with a seal plate (). Inlet and outlet tubes () include flexible tubing portions, whereby to allow for dimensional and/or positional variations between fuel cell power plants.
