Fuel filters are all pretty much the same. There's also a lot of re-boxed filters out there, you never know who really made it. It's not like oil filters which can vary in grade, quality and build greatly.
I always suggest a fuel filter change every spring time/once a year.
Of course, if you use cheep no-name gas you might want to change the filter more often.

I use the Racetronix in my 2000 WS6 and it has never let me down. Just bought the fuel pump and modded factory sending unit bucket to install myself.
I did the trap door mod instead of dropping the tank so access to FP is quick and EZ in the future.
Also a good idea to go with the FP Upgraded Wiring Harness that pulls power directly off the battery terminal on back of alternator, and at least an Upgraded Body Ground Kit (heavier gauge body ground wire to replace the weak factory ground wire) - if not an entire Big3 upgrade...
The upgraded FP wiring harness also has a pigtail to install a Boost a Pump if ever needed in the future to get xtra fuel needed for an added 100-150hp
Racetronix has the upgraded ground kit, Innovative Wiring makes a good Big3 wiring upgrade which would upgrade ALL your main power/ground wires.
And the modding/spending of cash never ends...

ok so i guess from what your saying http://www.racetronix.biz/customkiti...c=RFPK-002&eq= would be my best choice to get with all the extras with it.

In addition - if you would prefer to have a fuel filter that has a replaceable filter element instead of buying an entire new filter every time:
I use a GM EFI Inline Fuel Filter from CM Filters #25-909-CM-15 for 93-01 Camaro/Firebird.
https://www.cantonracingproducts.com...ion&key=25-909
Filter is $132, replacement synthetic elements are $14.40, & the seal kit is $9.60
Yes, it is definitely more $$ initially than a Delco filter, but I like the sturdy aluminum construction, the fact that it offers higher flow than stock filter, and double the filtration. After initial investment, cost to replace with fresh element is $25...

This inline filter is for GM EFI with quick disconnect 3/8" inlet and 16 mm female outlet port, is 4" long and comes with our 2-5/8" long 1 micron fuel element. CM EFI Fuel Filters are a perfect compliment to upgraded fuel pumps and the sensitive components of EFI systems. These filters out flow and have double the filtration of stock fuel filters.
