Default fuel pressure

I plan on installing a 61 fs series OS engine in my decathlon. My question is I'm going to be using the strait header pipe will I need a fuel pump or is their a possition I need to
install the fuel tank or do I need to install a nipple on the header or do I need to find a muffler ? Oh yeah the engine is going to be mounted on it's side.

Default RE: fuel pressure

Usually you don't need muffler pressure on a four stroke. The fuel draw at
the carb is much better than the two stroke. With the engine mounted
sideways, and the tank directly behind the engine, you should be fine.

FBD.
