Stop in for a cup of coffee

I usually put my filter horizontal right next to the carb (a little forward of the carb), is there a reason to not do that? the premade lines i see for 318s seemto put it below the pump or vertical by the head...
Try to tip it so the outlet will let vapor to push past the inlet valve first. I think on my Baracuda its more like 35-40 degrees but thats the idea. Also if the vapor gets so hot that it develops enough pressure to force open the inlet valve, it won't push as much fuel into the bowl.

I suffered too long with flooding issues and was glad to find that tip
