Hi, Dave...the aircraft designer told me that the header
tank was recommended, as the aircraft can better pick up fuel during aerobatics
(which I do perform). I did not install a flop tube or inverted oil
system, as I don't spend all that long a time inverted, and try to avoid
negative g's. Paul Conner

I agree
with Tracy 100%, as usual. There really is no benefit of a
header tank.

Of course, I meant to say *avoids* lots of possible problem
scenarios.

This thread just reinforces my dislike of sump tanks, vented or
not. Why complicate life like this? A return line to the tank is
not that hard to do and creates lots of possible problem scenarios.
