'68 Fuel line/in-line filter location
Guys,
Just finished dyno'g my new 406 SBC. I'm going to install new in cab tank/sending unit and fuel line. I'm going with AN fuel line from sending unit all the way with an in-line fuel filter, question is does this go before fuel pump or after? With this I shouldnt have to worry about anything related to fuel for a long time, I hope! DB

Re: '68 Fuel line/in-line filter location
Is it a new tank? I am assuming it is a carbureted engine. If it is a used tank I would run a 100 micron prefilter to protect the pump interals and then a 30/40 micron filter at the carb.

Re: '68 Fuel line/in-line filter location
Thanks guys! It is a NEW tank/sending unit and a carb'd motor. I'll install in-line filter (IIRC its a 40 micron) right before the carb.
BTW; its a mild 400 build, bored 30 over, alum heads, eddie 600 carb, 315 HP @ 4500, 421 torque @ 1800 thru 2500! Should be a tire burner!!
