OP did not have a "stock" setup where a pre-bent hard line went from FP to carb.....so a better fuel line and filter was suggested to OP for "his" current setup.
Hard line from FP is 3/8, I'm replacing with a new hard line from FP straight to carb inlet and putting a new FF under the cab where the "Travel Tanks" valve is (effectively bypassing the valve) . So fuel tank pick up to FF, FF to hard line to FP, new hard line from FP straight up to carb inlet after I take off the hose barb. No more clandestine meetings with flames or extinguishers. 👍
