So it looks like I need another filter between the mechanical pump and the carb. It is going to be interesting to prime that system so I don't have to crank the engine a lot on the first start. Maybe a suction bulb wil pull gas through all of that restriction. On a previous car (MG midget) I had a whole box full of plastic see-through filters with small paper filters inside and they flowed pretty good. They were just inserted in the fuel line before the carb and held with clips; I changed them frequently due to a rusty gas tank but I could see if anything was in there. With my first filter shown above I would think the gas should be pretty clean after the first few minutes flushing the new line. Now I have to rethink another filter.
