Anybody got any (cheap!!! ) suggestions for an injection pump prefilter for 5/8" fuel line?

I never used them in the past but the new grasser will be needing a big, and rather expensive group A cosworth type Bosch pump.

Having to spend £100 ish on the pump I am reluctant to seize it with a piece of careless weld spatter from the tank!

Anybody got any suggestions, was wondering about a diesel engine prefilter or something, as petrol filters are either ludicrously expensive or too small (this bosch pump has a BIG inlet, M18!)

cheers

VWP do cheap clear placcy ones but I think have 6/8 mm tails - you are after 16 mm! <-- that' gonna cost ya!!

see FSE , £ 60 ish

just seen this:
G SSF2012 BMW 13321269244 14x1.5 14x1.5 105 74 £7.90

more reasonable £

(you may need an adapter if the reduction in dia is ok)
or Thinkauto; or ebay.

someone posted a sugestion of using an Audi in-line filter - they were cheap.
I seem to remember they fitted many Audis, including the Quattro
