If you are doing or thinking of doing any aerobatics, it is important to make sure your fuel line within the tank will reach to all of the corners. It's not pleasant having your engine quit at any time, but it's even worse if you're inverted while it happens.
If your line doesn't reach the corners, one thing you can do is adjust the length. If that isn't the problem you can find a more flexible fuel line or a heavier clunk. Before buying another clunk, you could add weight to the one you have by slipping a washer or nut over it.
Along these lines, make sure your fuel lines are always in good shape and make sure they won't slip off the nipples by using zip-ties or clamps to hold them secure.
