Very nice work, but please lose the glass fuel filter, I would hate to see all that effort go up in smoke :cry:

Whats the beef with the glass filter??Maybe you`ve had a bad experience???? That is one of the very few things that was on the car when I bought it and is still there..I have put a new filter in last week if that helps.. :D :D

1) they leak
2) they are glass and can shatter
3)they struggle to keep up with flow rate
4) I HATE THEM

:D

Glass filter? Ever had that stone come up knock it out all over your hot manifolds? Or the insecure placcy one drop on the manifold ?Saw a rebuilt Mk2 rs2000 go coz of a glass one & a caterham 7 with a loose placcy one . "gone in 60 seconds"
