Fuel filter placement

My fuel filter is currently positioned right off the carb about 3 inches? Does it matter where I put this? I would like to have it closer to the fuel pump, so it's not so obvious, but still visible.

Re: Fuel filter placement

Doesn't matter how far away from the carb it is, but i would recommend keeping it between the fuel pump and carb.
