Spin on fuel filter and base part numbers?
I just did the Hutch/Harpoon mod and I do have a napa 3007 filter. I would like to upgrade to a spin on filter and base for prepump filtration. Anyone have part numbers for a napa filter and base? I am hoping I can find something local. Thank You!

I use a Baldwin FB1311 base with a BF1212 filter. Napa's filter is a
FIL3405 and their base is a
FIL4770 .

I would change it every 15-20k like your fuel filter.

I have a longbed and I mounted mine one the inside frame rail about 3 ft behind the fuel pump and 1 1/2 ft in front of the fuel tank.

if you have remnants of angle metal or c-channel, thin wall. WHere Rob mentioned, theres 2-already holes in the frame, to mock up ur metal to...worked perfect for me.

I have been doing my own maintenance for many years and have NEVER thought about putting the date/mileage on the filter
Takes the guess work out of "when did I change that last?"

Nothing wrong with that mount. Simple and effective! Doesn't get much better than that! Looks great too!
