SPRL V3 DUPLEX FU

Just wondering if anyone else had encountered the very tight clearance of the topmost screw on the SPRL V3 duplex valve???

 

As you can see from the pics, there is very little space to install the topmost screw, in respect to the 1/4" return line from the engine. I had to cut the 8/32 screw down to size and use a thin nut, as opposed to a thicker nylock nut I wanted to use. I am curious if I will even be able to tighten the return line nut when I install the fuel line.

I asked the company that makes the valve and they say they have not heard of any complaints in regard to the clearance.
