(kit received, April 1989). Thus is close to one of the specs. posted yesterday. General question: Why do so many builders keep screwing around with the fuel system? The factory recommended system works fine. You can carry enough fuel in the header tank to get to the nearest airport in the unlikely event of an electrical or pump failure. And if you want to reduce Pilot workload or you don't trust your memory to pump manually, then put in an automatic pumping system. All it takes is Hi and Lo sensors in the header tank an two relays.
