I have posted this on a few other forums and just asking around to try to get as many responses as I can. Well after hours of reading tons of threads I'm still not sure what to do. I don't know if I should just Mid-Tank Mod it and get some extended TVP's and buy everything I need for prob $125-150 the way I want it from Fast Lane or Innovative RC. I was thinking about trying one of the simple fix's first though. About half the threads say to loop a fuel hose and about half say get them as short as possible. I ordered a pressure fitting and a One Way Valve. I am planning on adding the one way valve between the muffler and tank cap to keep constant pressure in the tank. I am going to cap off the stock fitting the fuel goes out of and add the pressure fitting at the bottom of the tank with tubing long enough to loop a few times and zip tie to the shock towers. I am hoping this would work. Does anyone have any input on doing the mod like this and do you guys think this will fix the HTL issue? I will probably go with the Mid-Tank sometime soon but am going to try a simple fix until I get the time to do a complete Mid Tank setup. This is for a Savage x 4.6.
 
I was just asking if the masses thought adding a pressure valve at the bottom of the tank with a few loops in the tubing and adding a one way valve from the muffler would fix my half tank lean issue. Or should I approach this in a different way. I will be doing a mid tank mod in the fairly near future.
