Default Header tank

I know it shouldn't make any difference but is the header tank's positioning on the Raptor V2 a little high??

It doesn't affect at all, just remember to tilt the header tank a little bit to the left when refueling, this forces all the air bubbles to the main tank.

Yes thanks, I do.

I know it is a pressurised system but do you not think there may be a bit more syphoning effect with it being so high compared to the main tank clunk. I seem to remember having a Shuttle and I had to lower the header to avoid flooding before starting.
