I hope you are right Steve. Any leaks on the high pressure side could be
very spectacular. Also I believe that all the fuel should be filtered before
it enters the pump. I have seen water and fuel beaten by the electric pump
into a milky substance that will damage the injectors.

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.

Bulent,
I ended up not using a prefilter, but I uses Mallory high pressure filters
on the outlet side of the injection pumps (also Tracy's).
The filters are available from Summit Racing. The part number is MAA-3160

using for their prefilter and EFI filter? I plan on ordering my fuel

from Tracy unless someone knows a better source. Thanks in advance.
