Anyone ever use the screw on type of metal canister fuel filter?

Yes, but the type with AN threads that you can clean.
I have had good luck with them.

Mine is a slant six does anyone know of a metal canister type that would thread on to brake line / fuel line fitting s? This car will see the track only a couple of times a year, but the local track is tough on 12 inches of rubber line front to back.

I just put one on. I have the napa number. It was the only thread in type they had in SAE thread.

I went to Napa today and they show me the 23319 , it has metric threads did you get an adapter or make a custom line with different fittings?

Thanks

I have the box of flare fittings. Ill check tomorrow. I got them there as well.

 

[DART66GT]

The guy said he could get me the fittings. I think Im just gonna cut the flair off one end and use the new fitting and flair the end again.

This is what they gave me. It doesn’t leak and tightened nicely

I use an Earls sintered Bronze filter that you can unscrew and replace the internal element on. Seems to work well.

I looked at the Napa 23319 and me and the parts guy tried a fitting and looked it up in his book it takes a 14mm fitting. Is the 5/16 for the carb end and fuel pump?
