Yeah, Fabers run about 1.5lbs lighter than Worthington's on average. More suitable for warm water diving. Still trying to discern why longer tanks would make you head-heavy though. It would seem the opposite would be the case...
A similar discussion occurred earlier about the different trim characteristics of AL80's. Catalina's are butt-heavy as compared to Luxfers...

Fabers are butt light, worthingtons are more heavy on the butt. Us and few of my friends have those tank, fabulous tanks but they require a tail weight.
