Fuel Filter -10AN 45 Mic

The Peterson Fluid Fuel Filter -10AN 45 Mic is a high-flow, inline fuel filtration solution engineered for high-performance fuel systems, street rods, custom engines, and modified vehicles that demand reliability under demanding conditions. This stainless steel element filter sits between your fuel pump and carburetor or fuel injection system, protecting critical engine components from contaminants while maintaining consistent fuel delivery. Whether you're running a naturally aspirated engine with a traditional carburetor or a turbocharged fuel-injected setup, this -10AN AN-fitting fuel filter delivers the flow characteristics and filtration precision that serious enthusiasts and mechanics expect.

Built with a robust aluminum construction and black anodized finish, the 600 Series housing resists corrosion and fuel degradation over extended use. The 45-micron stainless steel element strikes an optimal balance between filtration fineness and flow rate—fine enough to trap rust, dirt, and varnish particles before they reach your fuel injectors or carb jets, yet open enough to prevent backpressure issues that could starve your engine at sustained high RPM. Dual 10 AN male inlet and outlet ports accept -10 AN braided hose or hard-line fuel system tubing, offering the versatility needed for custom fuel system layouts in hot rods, race cars, and modified street vehicles. The compact 3.4 x 3.35 x 9.85-inch footprint and light 0.9-pound weight make routing and mounting straightforward without sacrificing durability.

Mechanics and engine builders favor the Peterson Fluid Fuel Filter -10AN 45 Mic for carbureted street rods, EFI swap conversions, turbocharged platforms, and fuel system upgrades where OEM filters cannot handle the flow demands or fuel quality concerns arise from older fuel systems. Installation is straightforward: position the filter in line between your fuel pump and engine, secure the 10 AN braided lines or hard tubing to both ports, and verify proper orientation if pressure-sensitive check valves are present in your system. This filter is essential for anyone rebuilding a vintage fuel system, upgrading to higher-flow fuel pump capacity, or switching to E85 and racing fuel where contamination control becomes critical to longevity and performance.
