I have a fine wire mesh filter in an aluminum housing with An-6 fittings on each end just before the fuel enters my header tank..  You can unscrew one end to clean the mesh.  However, been too long ago and I find I never logged the part number on my fuel data sheet.
 
But, here are the specific part numbers I use for the EFI filters
 

Fuel Filters: OEM Auto Fuel Injector Fuel Filters (Two in Parallel)

Type: AC GF - 481 Pkg: 25056052 OEM:25055129 (or equivalent)

Fittings: 3/8 Saginaw to AN6 Adapter, "O" ring required

Thanks Rob and Ed for the replys on the MSD fuel pumps.
 
Now;  what kind of filter do you have ahead of the pump?  I'm thinking of using some fine mesh screen to make a filter inside the sump tank.  It will be hard to service but believe that one will prolong pump life and possibly. stop a particle that could interupt fuel flow.  What size mesh is recommended?

I have been using the MSD 2225 for about 20 hour with no problem so far. Plenty of fuel pressure. Only problem is that it is not threaded so I had to use the barbed nipples that come with the pump. How bad can that be?
