Fuel Pump Fitting

I’m installing a new panel and that includes fuel flow. I’m installing the Red Cube for EI. The current fitting from the engine driven fuel pump is this with the fuel restriction fitting screwed into the 1/8” port.

I’d really like to be able to have a straight fitting for the fuel line to help me not have the Red Cube ending up under the oil cooler.

I’d still like to have the 1/8” port for the fuel restrictor. I’ve been unable to find anything like that.

I was also considering using the straight fitting from the fuel pump and adding a T to the fuel line (past the fuel pump and before the Red Cube) to connect the fuel restrictor to.

Any good ideas?

Aircraft Specialty Flightlines offers two versions of the fuel pump outlet T fitting. One of them should work for you I think. They are the same other than swapping the placement of the fuel outlet vs. the fuel pressure restrictor fitting. On both versions, the smaller fitting has a flow restrictor built in already.
