You have to be careful with fuel lines if you are running pump gas. The Ethanol in our gas is eating up even the best rubber hose within 3 years causing plugged carburetors, injector and pumps. The best system is either a hard line or PTFE (Teflon) hose. As far as a filter, on an electric pump I like to have a filter before the pump and one after. On a mechanical pump with a carb it's not a bad idea to install a small inline filter after the pump.
Call the guys at JDA Enterprises 530-365-8400. All they do is performance plumbing and they take the time to explain the differences.

Thanks for the info
Motor is 455 meca pump with 750 carb.
Originaly fuel filter was in the carb in Pontiac Firebirds but as you can see in the picture, previous owner change carb. & add a big fuel filter before the carb
Just curious, as my tank is not so new if this was a good or bad idea to add a fuel filter just after the tank ?
Thanks
Gil
