I just ordered Flo scans (twinscan) unit. I have carb'd 454's with mechanical fuel pumps. I'm running the original in line canister filters before the pump and have the small screens at the carbs. No fuel issues thus far, I check and change the filters regularly.
Flo scan is recommending a 30 micron filter be installed before the sending units. Not as a filter per se, but just to keep the senders clean. I didn't really want to mess around with the hard/metal line which goes out of the filter and to the pump.
I have flexible hose coming from my bypass valve going to the inlet on the filter. This is where I was thinking of installing the add'l filter and sending units. With this setup, I won't need the dampening valve because the senders will be before the main filter.
Do you guys have any recommendations? I suppose this would be the opportunity to bypass the original canister filters and install Racors but I don't know if 30 microns is too large if I eliminate my other filter. I don't know how many microns the existing filter is.
I can't seem to find a simple, in-line 30 micron filter though which was my original thought.
