I also see some chatter around glass inline fuel filters, while I don't have one it makes me think of another question.

Should I install a filter before the electric fuel pump? I have one at the carb now.

Some are resettable and some are not. The Corvette switches have a reset button them right at the top but none of the foreign ones do. ALWAYS install a filter before the pump. These pumps are not very tolerant of dirt or crumbs of rust inside them. Just be sure that the filter is in an accessible place. The pump is cooled by fuel and if the flow is choked off by a dirty filter you will be buying a new one.
