OK, so I haven't finished the Conversion Bible yet.  Right now I'm trying to 
figure out how to store it in the wings.  But eventually I'll have to pump it 
to the engine.  So, What's the fix for corvair fuel pumping?  Are you veering 
into a header tank?

In the early days of aero conversion of these engines, the simplicity and lack 
of need for any external power to operate the stock fuel pump made them 
attractive, especially for those on a budget.  Just connect hoses and you've 
got pressurized fuel from a simple, low-profile, stock pump.  Not a good idea 
on flight engines though.
