I don't think there is a such thing. You might check in the experimental aircraft suppliers.

we had them for the fuel trucks we built, but they use 1"inlet and outlets. Just get a good fuel pump and get a fuel pressure gauge

It'd be useless anyway, since the fuel pressure regulator bleeds excess fuel back to the tank, so you'd be seeing a much higher rate of flow than what you're really using.

And what were you going to do with the results?

If your in doubt, just do more than needed, and use aftermarket ecu to tune

Or you could just know the injector flow rates precisely (ie get them tested) and calculate fuel flow from the duty cycle of the injectors.
