Fuel Filter Recommendations

Jesse Knapp · 06-09-2009, 07:13 AM

My car's fuel system was very similar to Mr. Smith's except I did not use the filter. I ran the #12 (11/16 i.d.) from the cell to pump (BG 400). From there to the regulator I used aluminum 5/8ths tubing, saving a bit of weight here. I used two #8 (7/16ths i.d.) lines to a Y block, then a fitting from block directly to Quadrajet. I was very concerned about volume more than pressure, what with the small bowl on a 207. I, too, set my pressure at 6 or 6.5 lbs. and never touched it again. I can say I never had any fuel problems.
