<it seems a good thing to build the empty CG toward the forward limit on the IV>
You betcha, they do tend to get tail-heavy. Working with a CG model, I was able to get my 'min. fuel, pilot only' CG to within a half-inch of the forward limit by such things as using Hartzell vs MT prop, putting my two batteries in the engine compartment, and just generally placing all heavy items as far forward as practical.
