Re: Which filters?

I would run -8 (1/2") on the suction side & -6 (3/8") on the pressure side.

Re: Which filters?

Most high end pumps (such as Aeromotive) recommend a 100 micron pre filter and 10 micron post. I'm running 45's on mine and have no problems. It's a little excessive but I'm also running -8 all the way. -6 is more than enough to the fuel rails.
