Colyn,
 
Here=92s a reply that I sent to Charley = Brown with=20 essentially the same question:
 
Right Charley, no fuel selector valve. = I have a=20 header tank between the right side of the instrument panel (no = instruments=20 there) and the firewall. It holds 15 gallons and the engine runs ONLY = from the=20 header. This system is very much like the 320/360 fuel system. The = header is=20 supplied from a manifold mounted on the fwd face of the spar box, under = the=20 pilot=92s thigh.
