I have based my gascolator (Andair 375) position in the fuel system based on the Extra 400, a certified competition aerobatic aircraft.
EA-400 Pilot Information Manual section 2.10 said:The EA 400 is a normal category airplane. The normal category is
applicable to aircraft intended for non-aerobatic operations.
Note that the Extra 400 is a normal category, non-aerobatic aircraft, as evidenced in this statement from the EA-400 Pilot Information Manual.

Regarding the comment about "The aux fuel pump will have to suck fuel up through the gascolator, which may increase the potential for vapor lock" the Extra Aircraft designers seem to be happy with the gascolator between the fuel selector valve and the aux electric pump.
