It seems to me that tapping the backplate for crankcase pressure is common to most of the options. So that is a good place to start. I seemed to have deleted the past email on how to do this. Can someone describe it again?

Looks like too many choices for a non-mechanic like me. But I am really tired of watching others fly in the contest, while I nurse my engine. Or almost as bad, nursing my engine while I am flying the sequence. I am looking for a very reliable, consistent setup.
Having got that off my chest, I wonder if anyone has figured out how far back from the engine you can go with a bladder tank? Seems to me that having a 18oz tank next to the firewall has to result in trim changes during the flight.
How do you pressurize a hopper or header tank? Is crankcase pressure too much if you are running a hopper tank.
