Fuel Filter for Parallel Fuel System

Will this fuel filter do?

230106ERL


http://www.holley.com/HiOctn/ProdLin...SC/230106.html


I have a Walbro 255lph and two 1600cc injectors feeding -6an fuel line system.

Will this be adequate for my T04B 60-1 .96A/R .70Trim?

Thanks

It's a perfect match. It's more superior to the stock setup, as you may have already figured out Ian and It'll accept your -6AN fittings.

You and I are running very simular setups. I'm going with this one and I know carx7, has the same one, for example.

AEI-12303 $72.69 Straight-through design, flows 1,200 psi, 10 micron element, fuel filter


As quoted from Summit.

just for kicks what is everybody running for fuel filters
Before and after pump.

My setup.

no prefilter
aeromotive a 700 pump 8an inlet 6an outlet.
Fram Racing HPG1 fuel filter. 90 GPH 10micron filters

Im thinking of switching to Earls inline filters on both sides. Screen filter on the inlet, and sintered bronze on the outlet. but thats anouther $60 I dont have.

I'm getting ready to ditch my external bosch fuel pump for a walbro intank that will have a sock strainer on it. Where the current external bosch pump is now I have a bosch filter from a CIS mechanical FI car from the 80's. It's a big ***** ~ 3" dia x 5" long.

I'm doing my fuel system right now. I ditched the parallel setup ideas I had because they were just too expensive to deem necessary. I'll be moving my fuel filter up front and I plant to just stick some Earl's hose to connect the hardlines in its place. I was looking at the Aeromotive stainless steel mesh filter that's out... not sure on part number or anything, but I think it runs around $130. I thought it was a good idea since you don't have to replace the filter element. Just pull it out, spray it off, and stick it back in.

Mine says its good for 4 to 5 Gpm.

It seems like everyone is using something different. I've been told the earls one is being used on tons of high horse power domestics so I hope she is good to go.

240gph sounds good enough

Depends on what pressure its flowing 90gph at. If it flows 90GPH around 75psi of fuel pressure then yes its way pleanty. If it flows 90GPH at 10psi of fuel pressure then there is no telling what it runs a 75psi where you really need the flow.
