yeah, I am committed to the fuel system locations. Everything is hard lines and was a chore to install.

disregard my previous post, I found your plane's photos.

Paul, do you have a photo of the 8.50 X 6.00 front tire you could post? Curious if you used the stock Zenith fork.
I used a "701 style" gascolator available from Zenith. I put it under the baggage floor with a flush drain going thru the fuse bottom. There is a photo of it on my page in the photo section if you care to see it.

used steel instead of nylon tubing for brake lines.

i regret my gasculator location choice. Should have installed it in front of the firewall.
