That is a nice looking check valve. I looked a long time for a good quality fuel filter that will take regular AN fittings and does not cost a fortune. I did some searching on Earl's after I saw your pictures and it looks like they have a very nice line of economical plumbing parts. Are they standard 37 degree AN fittings and where have you found the best prices on their parts?
Here is one source I found that has pricing. http://www.amstreetrod.com/FuelSystemComponents.php4 And the home page here http://www.holley.com/earlsplumbing/index.html Looks like they have some really nice stuff. The fuel shutoff valves are a lot better looking than most aircraft types I have seen. The flared fittings machined right on their parts means you don't need a bunch of NPT to AN adaptors like a lot of other brands of fuel system components. Looks like they might have some nice oil coolers for our use also.

I'll have to give credit to OZ for getting me to think more on this, but suffice it to say that my fuel system is about to get a lot smarter. Go about 2/3 of the way down http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/fuel/index.html#update for the update, if you must. I'm sure a lot of you guys are getting tired of this, but I think it's kind of fun, solving problems BEFORE they show up on maiden flight takeoff...
