If I were to build a third KR, or ever modify this one for wing tanks, I
would put the header fuel to fill only the area over the shelf and would put
about 7 or 8 gal. in each wing, probably inboard, so save some complexity,
and it would be kept as far forward as possible, behind the front spar.

The rest of the space under the forward deck, I would use for baggage.  I
saw something like this on Dean Selby's plane and think it the best way to
go.

This would not add much weight and would keep the CG as close to "in the
right place" as possible.

I seriously doubt that I would ever get to that point, but that is what I
would do if the opportunity every comes upon me. 

PS: Some of you are leaving a lot of repetitive data in the replies.  This
makes searching the archives difficult.
