That means after about 10 minutes it will be tail heavy. Add a little lead to the nose to CG it without fuel. Sometimes the spinner back plate will get a warp/bend from tightening the prop on or from getting hit on the nose. I have put these on a piece of wood and using a big socket I can give them a hard whack with a hammer and get them straight again. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
