The 325 HP..7 micron fuel filter curse

[promisedland]

I advise against running a direct fuel line into the cab. I reccomend an electric gauge or an isolator or putting a cup on the hood a-la '70's street rod.

Well, i agree that a fuel leak in the cab would be BAD! I'll look into this.

Good idea. Whenever modifying a vehicle I always consult the NHRA rule book for safety ideas. That is one of them. So is having the least amount of rubber hose as possible.

What brand of filter at 2 mic's will replace the 7 mic one that goes into my 2004.5 canister.??? Where can I purchase some??

I am at 152k with original injectors. Runs great.

Baldwin Pf7977 is the best filter to use in the oem canister, though it is rated at 5 mic single pass, not 2 mic.

I like to order from FiltersPro.com--

I got my gauge on and at idle and lower rpms i see 12.5psi. It was foggy so i didnt do a WOT run, but at 50%+ eng load i saw 9psi...
I'll keep an eye on this and keep thinking about adding a 12mc/WS filter along the frame rail..[baldwin 1212]

I sold my FASS, I'm glad! Noise making bugger it was....

Just a FYI. My son works at Carquest auto parts and they signed a contract earlier this year to have there filters built by Baldwin

But to whose specs?

Built by Baldwin doesn't mean a lot, and I consider it different than rebranded Baldwin filters.

Most filter specs are extremely mis-leading, the Owner of this CP3 pump is going to pay a high price, He put faith in a WIX filter 33527 / 33616 Both filters should have never been used, The Pump is our 11.2 stroker Race CP3, The 1st gear is the suction side of the gear pump, 100% of all fuel entering the feed cavity must travel thru this GP,The entire pump is destroyed it blew up form lack of fuel (starvation) and contamination. It blew up shortly after installing the new filters. The truck was 1/2 tank when this happen, so its unlikely that the tank fuel is contaminate, either something was in the filters or poor handling, The eccentric shaft was not snap off at GP key way. This picture is a good for what happens over time when you feed a CP3 GP to much pressure, the gear will wear against the backing plate and eventually span the shaft.
