    Default pump/no pump?

    Hi everybody
    debating on using a mechanical fuel pump for my experimental shortwing (o-235)... I have two wing tanks with a trimmer-style fuel line routing (no header tank, L-R-ON-OFF valve, etc). Not sure if the certified shortwings use a pump or not; any advice on which way to go?
    thanks!

    No pump needed even up to 180 hp.
