Fuel Flow indicator
 
Anyone happen to have fuel flow (pressure) indicator that you don't need?

Burt,
I don’t have that, but I do have the twin-engine Shadin digiflo system (two flow transmitters and cockpit gauge) if you want to go that direction.

I removed it from my aircraft when I installed the GI275 EIS.

I may have one of these on the shelf at the hangar. Will check on Thursday if you can wait until then.

Consideration
 
Unless you are trying to maintain the antique style, I'd step up to a shadin or equivalent.

I was the first person to put a shadin in my helicopter in the 1980's. A helicopter fuel gauge is only accurate sitting on the ground with the engine off ...for at least 3 minutes.

The 337 turbo fuel flow meter is actually a pressure gauge that must be connected to the fuel manifold, as I recall, and to the turbo outlet pressure.

Double check that, it was 25 years ago.

I wasn't thrilled with a fuel line over my passenger's knees.

I recall from 25+ years ago the rear cessna fuel flow gauge would jump to 20 gph on idle because the vacuum side to the gauge would drive it nuts.

A Shadin, or equivalent, will give you a lot more utility. More accurate, of course, but also gives you lots of other info if connected to any sort of GPS system.
