Eddie Trimmer in Wasilla Alaska has an STC to install a Maule Fuel Selector 
with, LEFT, RIGHT, BOTH, OFF Selections.  It runs the right tank line 
underneath the seat (probably similar to Frank's Miss Pearl) but eliminates 
the gascolator under the right seat and places two low point sump drains 
on the left bottom of the fuselage just aft of the wing strut attach fitting. 
The Piper fuel valve is replaced with a Maule fuel valve. 

The STC also allows an alteration to the exhaust system with
slip joints in front of the oil sump and enlarging the exhaust 
outlet of the muffler to three inches for those aircraft that 
have the Univair STC for the Lycoming O-360 engine. 
This allows the installation to be much more desirable because 
it does not butcher the lower cowling for exhaust stacks.

Eddie has additional fuel capacity, 72 gallons.  He describes.....

"The fuel tanks in my airplane are Field Approved. I added a stock PA-22 
eighteen gallon fuel tank in the next outboard compression bay of each wing, 
this gives me a total of seventy-two gallons of fuel. The outboard tanks 
are auxiliary tanks only. A solid state Facet fuel pump is used to transfer 
the fuel into the original tanks once the fuel is used from the original 
tank.

I have an application for a STC which moves the aileron outboard 24" and 
then extends the flap outboard & inboard to the fuselage, as a part of this 
STC we may include the installation of an additional 18 gallon tank in 
either or both wings."

E-mail I recieved from Eddie:

"I just received an STC SA02241AK that alters the fuel system in Short Wing Pipers.

The fuel valve is replaced with a Maule fuel selector valve that has 
LEFT,RIGHT, BOTH & OFF. The gascolator under the right seat is removed 
and a line is installed under the seat from the right side to the left 
side with two low point sump drains installed on the left side.

The primary reason that I pursued this STC was to accompany the installation 
of a left seaplane type door. As it turned out there are a couple of other 
benefits, with the use of "goose neck" fuel caps which add pressure to the 
fuel tanks, the Lycoming O-360 180 Horsepower engine may be installed using 
a gravity feed fuel supply (eliminates the mechanical & electric boost pumps)."

The old Swallow's rt. tank STC for the Clipper use a sump drain rather than 
a gascolator. Eddie's system is just like a Maule which has two sumps. 
His Pacer has the left door mod and creates two low points in the fuel lines.
