Sorry - my diagram isn't to scale. I had planned to install the 10 micron filter on the inside of the passenger frame rail just in front of the rear wheel; maybe 3 feet "downstream" of the in-tank pump (which has a 100 micron filter on the bottom of it, I believe).

I've been intrigued by the various threads/discussions about dead heading the fuel line out to the engine, but didn't know if it was something that could/should be done on this type of set-up; seems like I see discussion about it used on LS engines, but I haven't seen anyone use it on a big-cube BBC. Is there a reason or is the routing more of a personal preference issue?
