Default What To Do With Fuel Filter. Stock Line Used For Return?

I want to use the stock feed fuel line on my 02 Z28 as the return. What can I do about the stock fuel filter? I know the filter flows only one way so it probably needs to be replaced with a fuel line. How would I connect it to the stock lines? Thanks

Doesn't the fuel filter only flow one way?

Does anyone know if the stock fuel filter will only flow in one direction?

Nope it will be just fine as long as its a new filter so you don't get junk back in your tank. Didn't believe me the first time

Scared? Well, if you were familiar with that type of filter you would know that would not be possible.
