120 has 2x fuel tanks, one under the baggage compartment floor and the other higher. Smaller fuel load will help total weight but with the current tank locations very little impact on CoG; there is some small shift FORWARD as fuel reduces but it is minimal. If the redesign removed the front of the current tank you might reach neutral CoG from ramp-to-zero fuel.
