Default Repositioning Hi-speed needle

Well after my last crash I needed to buy a new engine mount so I went to my local hobby shop and purchased a dubro aluminum mount ,although the mount is strong cast aluminum its very bulky and gets in the way of the stock hi- speed needle position. I was wondering if I could mount the needle within the fuselage , I’m asking because I’m worried the fuel line going to the carb might be way to long and somehow effect performance.
