Bulent,
I see what you mean on the description, but I had originally bought a low
pressure filter, and decided to put them on the high pressure side.  I
called Summit and this is the filter they recommended. The description used
to say that they were for high pressure fuel injection applications.  I
don't know when they added the "between the tank and pump".  You obviously
don't need a super strong aluminum billet case for a low pressure filter.

I'll check this further with Mallory web site, but it appears to be down
today.

Steve, I'm afraid you may have made a potentially a dangerous mistake. The
description of this filter reads:

"This 160 series filter is designed for the high performance enthusiast who
knows the importance of always ensuring that there is a fuel filter between
the fuel tank and the electric fuel pump. "

It is not designed for high pressure service, but to be installed on the low
pressure side like I did with mine.
