Anyone ever re-located the fuel filter?

Just wondering how practical it it is to do and if anyone has done it. Any help is greatly appreciated or advice.

Its done a lot but only when doing a fell electric fuel pump conversion. Its not worth it if you are keep the stock fuel pump. Most when doing it use a pre-pump and post pump filter

Joe do you have a regulator yet? don't forget that and tubing for lines and also fittings. Those are the tricky part!

Thought it might be easier to get to the fuel pump and taking it away from the heat is all. But electric fuel pump not sure on that even though they do last a while too.
