  Yes, that works OK. The engine might have to be set pretty fast on the ground, to accomodate the fuel pressure going up as you take off and start flying.

   That's probably better than the opposite. In this case, it's not very far inboard, so I think this will be fine.

If you like being awkward , putting a ' chicken hopper ' thing thru the fuse , uniflow . Would mean a small hiole in the fuselage .

Just use a say 3/4 x 3/4 x 1/2 deep square feed job tacked on , if its too much or a birch like it is .
Though tanks inboard of the spray bar usually work pretty good , for stunt .

ahh now I see it "feeding the spray bar" as opposed to the "spray bar sucking fuel"     cool next plane gets that
