Gravity brings the fuel to the bottom four corners of the tank where it go's to the T at the bottom.

Notice the 90 elbow at the lowest point where there is a tube that runs to a fuel strainer behind the pilot's seat. (Accessed from outside). The other tube, running vertical with the adale clamps, is the vent.

Notice the vent line in front of the tank. Larry White, a friend of mine, made the fittings to use poly flow type lines with AN fittings as a back up fuel sight gage.

Then the fuel go's up through an aluminum -6 tube to the fuel filter aux. Fuel pump fuel flow sender, then another tube to the rear fire-wall bulkhead fitting.
From the bulkhead fitting there is a flex line to the fuel pump.
Here you can see the line from the fire wall to the pump and from the pump to the front of the engine.
.The fuel line at the front then T's off to the left and right carb.
