I use a quick coupling under the header tank to fuel my plane. It uses a pump that pumps about 3 to 4 gal per min. I was going to install the red cube directly under the header tank above the quick connect, but have no idea of what reverse flowing fuel through it would do to the cube. Would it keep track of the fuel added or would it just trash it.

They don't really care what direction the fuel goes, but they also don't know which way it's going, so it will count the fuel both ways, assuming your EMS to SkyView is on while you are pumping the fuel.

The real issue is the speed. They are designed for up to 60 GPH, but you are talking about doing 3-4X that. That is a lot faster than they are designed to spin, and we can't really say what will happen if you do that.
