Summitracing.com has many wire mesh aluminum inline filters with AN fittings built in. They come in different screen microns and AN fitting sizes. I personally used the PermaCool fuel filter / water separator with drain built in before the pumps. Also from Summit Racing.

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?
