The filter is meant to be before the pump. It stops crap getting in the pump valves. Do not put it after the pump. They are not pressure rated.

Before filter from factory. There was a filter holder on WB. Not sure about WB's poor cousins HQ to HZ.
We can get some pretty dodgy fuel here. Hence all the filters. V8 had Rochester and 6 cylinder mostly had Stromburg.
Most V8 had WW Stromberg or some had an Email I think it was. Only 308 and blue 4.2 had Rochester Quadrajet. Chev engines had 2 or 4 barrel Rochester but some of the early 60's GMH Chevs, Pontiacs etc may have had a Carter. Silver 253/308 in Bedford had a 2 barrel Rochester like HK/T 307.
