as long as it's away from the heat of the engine,go for a place that's easy to get to and visible enough to remind you to change the filter OFTEN ! also, if you got a RACOR brand-on an I/O you must use the metal drain bowl/not the plastic ;)

Thanks zzzzz! So, depending upon where I mount it, I will probably have to run longer fuel lines? Plus, is it better to put it between the tank and the fuel pump or between the fuel pump and the carb?<br /> :confused:
