What are you guys running for fuel filters?

I do my best to keep them ACDelco on the 03' & 97' and Racor on the 85', but the way the price keeps going up on ACDelco, I might go with Wix or Racor across the line.

nothing but performance fuel filters.. especially since i tend to dump a couple of gallons of methanol in my tank from time to time, since it helps keep injectors and carbs clean. so my sonoma has a summit racing filter on it ( http://www.summitracing.com/parts/SUM-230101/ ) and my old bronco and F150 had aeromotive filters ( http://www.summitracing.com/parts/AEI-12301/ ) and i have no complaints about either. the summit filter is really nice and i love it because it's so much cheaper than the aeromotive filters but still the same basic design

I was reading the specs on those two filters and that first link is scary. It only filters to 40 microns, thats twice the stock filters. The second link is a sweet set up, the filters to 10 microns, very nice.

doesn't bother me.. still runs good cheers Laughing if the motor ends up having problems again, it's going carb'd, so in a way i'm wishing some part of the injection system takes a crap Very Happy
