Fuel system setup

I tried to post this additional comment, but time to edit had expired.

OEM "socks" are washable remember Mom always said "wear clean socks", but with the vintage of these trucks you may want to have a new OEM style in hand, just in case the mesh of screen is no longer pliable or already broken.
The sock has some trash on it but I didn't take time to get a picture. Based on what I've seen on it, though and how much I love removing fuel tanks, I'm thinking seriously about going with a 100 micron inline screen like what I posted earlier in this thread. If the factory sock is 70, then my only concern is wondering if 100 is too fine in order to pull the fuel through it. I suspect that a clean 100 might flow better and be safer than a dirty 70 that can bypass and suck whatever gets into it.
