this old q-jet filter...

Out of curiosity - which filters do you all prefer; sintered bronze type or the paper element type? (talkin roch qjet inlet only, not the inline filter) I run both an inline filter and an inlet filter, but have never really resolved the pros/cons of the bronze vs paper other than the general observation that paper probably flows better but may not last as long. True? Old wives' tale? Just wondering....

While we're talking filters... for the inline one, I stay away from glass (fire haz) and plastic (afraid it will melt!) and generally use metal cased filters. But I sure like being able to see if I've got fuel in the line rather than disconnecting and seeing if my pump pumps some fuel into a bucket. Any see-thru options that won't melt and aren't glass? Probably not, so I plan to stick w/metal, but still.... Thanks all!
