Default H9 Cap 1/4 and a smoke system

Fellas,

I'm finishing up my new 1/4 scale H9 Cap (my second) and was wondering if anyone has successfully installed a smoke system.

I currently have:

OS 160 w/bisson pitts and a Perry Fuel pump -- tapped the crankcase through the upper left bolt when looking from behind the engine.

I already bought the smoke injector nipple from bisson and am waiting for it's arrival in my mail box.

So... my two options are using the TME Deluxe smoke pump system or going with a pump that uses crankcase pressure (like the B&B one). Which one is better?

Second question, can I run a t-line on the crankcase pressure outlet line...one going to the fuel pump and one going to the smoke pump?

What size fuel tank should I use for the smoke oil? Is 16 0z overkill. I have one laying around in my workshop.

Both the fuel tank and the smoke oil tank will be directly on the CG.
