Fuel Filter - low restriction
 
Hi guys,

Looking to upgrade 454s soon to blowers, larger fuel lines and pickups but also replacing fuel filters - any recommendations? Would like to get the larger/longer ones as I do get some moisture in fuel tanks (humid Florida and old marine gas stations) and could use the extra protection.

What are you running on smaller blower motors?

Thanks

Was going to use with the OE base; however, the FST explicitly says not to. In comparing OE filter base dimensions with the FST's there are slight variances. Looks like one will have to go with the entire remote FST kit to use their filters.

stock mounts -- Racor or the Large Sierra.

We always ran just the cheap permacool mounts from jegs. I want to say 1/2” and they were 35 bucks or so.
