I simply took the aluminum 1/4 NPT to -6AN adapter, and had it welded closed. I then drilled the .040 hole through the adapter. I felt it would be better to put the adapter just before the hose rather than after it, so that if the hose should develop a leak, it will be after the restrictor. Thanks for helping me find any possible problems.
