I also only measure the header. My 320 is now 60 hours. Regularly I fill the mains up to a special mark, 34 gallons. Compared to the totalizer the difference is small and more related to the difficult to observe levels in a so flat tank. Total fuel in my tank 53 gal.

Neil,
I Measure the header only. I took Gary Edwards advice and did not put probes in the wings as everyone complains about their accuracy.. I use a fuel tantalizer and have never missed the gages on the wings...
That only works if you have a header tank...of course..

    I'm close to closing out my 360 wings  and would like to know if the
Princeton probes will read linerary with the extended tanks. What is the
most common fuel probes for the 360. Are they effected by the slosh bay at
wing station 57?  I have Princeton probes and IK Tech. Aim 3000 engine
monitor in my Rebel and they work great. I have to make a desision on the
extended wing tips. Can't see many down sides here in the mountians with
8000 ft mountians on 3 sides of my strip within 30 miles
    Finally working on my 360 FB MK-ll, outback gear, after sitting in my shop
for 17 years.
