Europa-List: Original Sight Gauge Replication

Gidday,
I am interested in installing a fuel sight gauge for "PRE-flight" 
interpretation. I am wondering if there is any recommendation that makes 
the setup more effective or accurate. I'm also wondering if there is any 
value in having two small ball valves to be able to isolate it, both in 
a rollover or to simply turn it off. I am using flexible Aeroquip fuel 
hose, and will be using a fuel computer as my primary means of knowing 
my fuel state, PLUS, I have a Fuel tank capacitance gauge. Maybe with 
the capacitance I don't need a sight gauge at all, but I have the 
plumbing in my fuel tank outlet fittings, so it seems sensible to use 
it.  Any help much appreciated. 
Regards

This is a picture of the small valves I "could" use, and the 1/4" ID 
line I intend to use on a sight gauge setup.
