I have a 9-1/2 gallon header tank, then transfer fuel from the wings to the header periodically in flight. I have run the header down to nearly empty, and flow tested it at high angles of attack. I've never had a flow problem in over 1200 hours. But, whether you need a pump or not is really going to depend on how low the bottom of you header tank might be. The real answer will be in a properly executed flow test at high angles of incidence. In that flow test, you want to run the fuel through the carb and measure the flow rate coming out the drain plug of the carb.
