In my experience engine fuel draw is a big player. When running hard tanks on larger aircraft they pull fuel just fine. It's the little guys that have a harder time. A medallion will work well with a hard tank, but not a TD.

I have yet to mess with .09/.15 though.

Ron, I've never owned a TeeDee or Medallion... (not by choice...) I always just "ended up" with assorted reedies over the years.

I personally like the look of a metal fuel tank on a profile model.

I'd like to see you make my sport muffler for one of your TeeDee's, with a pressure line running to a conventionally vented wedge-tank. You could run the main header(s) "open" for max performance... and still get a positive steady pressure through the tap/line to the tank. I've been curious about this.

I know you prefer the reliability of a bladder... I never knew until recently; that reedies can benefit by using one.
