If you can afford it, Shadin is the way to go. In addition, it is a legal replacement for the OEM fuel flow meter which gives you more panel space for other gear.

But, as said, fuel can get lost, stolen, leak out or never be put in so Shadin isn't without problems of it's own. Regular fill-up and a handy ladder for visually inspecting the tanks along with counting hours vs gph fuel flow are mandatory.

A plastic tube doesn't work in the 337s with 148 gallon tanks because the filler cap is so far out on the wing that you can't measure with a tube after burning 60-70 gallons total.
