It must be all the snow up here in the northeast.  Ibm getting ideas againb&

I want to move the fuel pump on my Mk1A to the Mk2 location, the tire well 
in the trunk.  Ibve got a new Facet ready and waiting.  Ibm trying to sort 
out the layout in my mind, having seen the various custom layouts in photos 
that some of you sent the first time I started thinking about this.  But 
here's the thought that keeps going through my mind...

Ibd rather not have any rubber fuel lines in the trunk.. Steel lines only, 
less likely to have an issue.  But I want to use a prefilter, that Ibd 
rather have protected in the trunk,  too.  So I started looking for fuel 
filters with threaded fittings on their inlets and outlets.  I found a few 
for fuel injected systems, Bosch stuff, Porsche stuff, etc.  But those are 
likely metric, and Ibd rather stick with something I could easily adapt to 
the 5/16b
 (IIRC) standard fuel line.

I know therebs a pricey Fram filter for racers, but Ibm thinking there must 
be something else.  A cheaper something else.  Any ideas out there?
