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.
