    You'll be fine with the 10 micron Racor. I had one on my 88
    but swapped it for the cheaper (and easier to store/replace)
    inline Wix G2's. If I feel the need for better filtration,
    I'll put it back on, but I've been doing OK so far with the
    in line. The Racor looks cool mounted to the bulkhead or
    fenderwell, which is nice.
