Default Fuel System

Are the 11oz saddle tanks in the picture part of the main fuel system? If they are, you may want to run fuel through them to make sure you can draw all the fuel out. I had a problem with 10oz oval tanks laying on their side. My clunks wouldn't get to the last 1.5oz of fuel(3oz total). I had to modify the clunks by drilling them out and installing a brass tube extension to be able to get all the fuel out. Your setup may work a little better since the your tanks are inclined and the shape of the tank may help a bit with the clunk angle.

Just thought you might want to check it.

Great project, BTW.
