Hi Ernest. I'm using this one and like it:  Part# PRM-81794 at summitracing.com
It is a water separator and filter with large capacity and drain on the bottom.

It's time to select a fuel filter.  I know it's a little oversized, but I'm running 3/8" fuel lines at least to the firewall, just to make sure I'll never run into a restriction problem with fuel delivery (at least not a restriction that can be attributed to undersized lines).

I'm trying to source a part for filters right now, but I'm not sure what constitutes good numbers.  The Earl's filter I'm looking at says that it traps down to 85microns and is good for 4 to 5gpm.  That would translate to 300gph?  Does it strain well enough to act as the primary filter?

instinct, and morality, to just sit back and watch people make
mistakes. We want to help them, which means control them and their
decisions, but in doing so we actually hurt them (and ourselves)."
