I have used the iron bay for two years on my 160 with good results.  I did
buy a Perry pump but didn't have room to install it so stuck with the iron
bay.  The only issue I have had is after a few flights on a hot day fuel
seeps through the regulator and out of the carb so I put a clamp on the fuel
line to stop the engine from flooding.  I can also start my os with one back
flip to the grin of the Springfield MO gangs ys delight :-)
 
I just looked at there web site and found this:
 
Fuel continues to leak into the carburetor after the engine shuts off: Most
likely there is dirt or an obstruction in the valve. Back flush the valve
with fuel and discard the waste. Refill the tank and try again. If the
problem persists, the valve core should be replaced. Return the core along
with a SASE. to Iron Bay for free replacement. It can be removed with a
common tire valve tool. 
I will try this and see if fixes it otherwise get a FREE replacement part.
They also provide free replacement diaphragms.
