Here is the bracket.



It's only sitting in place at the moment and when bolted in there is about 1/2in clear at the bottom and between it and the chassis rail behind to allow dirt etc to be cleaned out.

Filters are 60mm cleanable/reusable in aeroflow brackets. These really are only to stop junk picked up damaging the valve. They are 30 micron stainless steel inserts.

Valve is the Pollak 6 way.

Still needs to be painted and add the return lines.

I'm looking at adding an electric fuel pump after the valve.

Cheers
Ross

I also recommend a pre filter. Mine got filled with junk and caused fuel starvation.

You buy buy the 6 way pollack valve at autozone for $70 i believe.

Can anyone recommend one of those inline universal pre filters that I can buy on the shelfs somewhere, want something that's not cheap but also if it needs to be replaced I can go to the store and pick a couple up without having to worry about availability.

Any difference in filters from gas to diesel?

Was looking at AutoZone and it looked like they had some online but nothing available

I've used these before.

Ryco Fuel Filter - Z373

They can be used in place of the 60mm cleanable ones I've got.

Threaded fittings at each end so a barbed or AN- fitting depending on your lines. There is also one with barbed connections built in but don't know if there 3/8in or 5/16in.

Don't know if it makes any difference with diesel or petrol but I noticed some of the Ryco filters are marked "petrol only".

Cheers

Just for the record, the valve you should get from autozone is FSV2K, or just make sure if available you get the 6 port valve with the pigtail, don't get home and realize you forgot it. The nice part about FSV2K is it is the same price as FSV2, if not they charge you and extra 19.99 for the pigtail if you buy them separately.


Cheers,
Devin
