pjo046 Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Will a fuel filter like this work with my setup? http://store.summitracing.com/largeimage.asp?part=EAR-230206ERL I am trying to get 400hp, will use a fuel cell with 6AN lines, a walbro pump etc. Will a filter like this do?

RB26powered74zcar Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 If its rated for EFI presure, I can't see why not. It does appear to be kinda small but you can't always go by the pic. I'd have to read the discription before knowing for sure, but it looks like it should be ok.... This is the type I have. For the price, you can't beat it...

pjo046 Posted December 3, 2005 Author Share Posted December 3, 2005 Well, it's rated at a maximum fuel pressure of 75 psi, and it flows 4 to 5 gpm. The smallest particles it filters is 85 microns. Hope it will do, because this is what I have bought from summit.... :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjo046 Posted December 6, 2005 Author Share Posted December 6, 2005 So, does anyone know if this fuel filter is ok to use with my setup? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjo046 Posted December 6, 2005 Author Share Posted December 6, 2005 Well, as I said in an earlier post: "it's rated at a maximum fuel pressure of 75 psi, and it flows 4 to 5 gpm. The smallest particles it filters is 85 microns." 4-5 gallons per minute means it flows 240-300 gallons per hour. I see it says carbureted when I click the link for application. But as long as it can withstand pressures of 75psi I guess it shouldn't be any problem? I found a summit filter that is meant for fuel injection. It is of the same design as this I have bought, but it can flow only 150gph, and the maximum pressure it can take is 100psi. It filters particles down to 10 microns. So, will the filter I have see more than 75psi on my car because it's fuel injected? If not, why should it be a problem? Also, is it's filtering capabilities good enough when it doesn't filter particles under 85 microns? By the way, when I checked that fram filter you are refering to, it says that that filter is meant for carburetion as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
