FWIW, I prefer the simple bronze tee plugged on top, and the engine hose attached to an ell off the middle port. This provides the most options. I can close the valve, remove the plug and open the valve to check for flow or clear any blockage using a spoon handle.

Has anyone done this? Any disadvantages? What type of valve did you use? All the best, Edd Edd M.
