Fuel filters for e85
I was wondering what in line filters are people using for e85? I've searched around and I've read that 10 micron is the way to go but finding one that doesn't have a paper element is hard it seems. Do you think running a 40 micron stainless steel element filter such as this one http://www.summitracing.com/parts/rus-650133/overview/ would be ok? Also would mounting it under the hood between the rail and the stock metal feed line be ok ? If not where ?

UPDATE:
I decided to change the fuel filter setup because I wanted the water seperater for my upcoming switch to E85. The filter from Squash was working well, but I wanted something different. This unit flow 5gpm or enough to support ~3x Walbro 400 pumps. Ran this same filter on my Z and have a few friends with fast cars running it as well.

I was able to start tuning the car tonight and it is feeling strong at 30psi so I should be able to hit the dyno soon for some updated numbers.

Well my current setup is a walbro 416 e85 , fic fuel rail , fuel lab regulator , fic 2150's and now I am looking for a filter to run inline. What filter are you using cursedsm? And will the one I linked be ok? It's 40 microns but it has a steel element so I feel better using that over a 10 micron paper element that will break down.
