Default Elder40_tank location

I'm building the Elder40 and using a Saito 56 mounted upside down as called for. I mounted the tank as low as I could but the tank's fuel outlet (Dubro) will be about 3/8" above the centerline of the needle valve. I'm thinking that the taildragger configuration will probably compensate but I still get the feeling that I might get fuel drip.

Do you fellows think this will be a problem or am I just being paranoid?

Chuckle. That's what I like, a man of few words.
