Mike,

Go to www.fuelpolishing.com and you should be able to find the information
you need. I think the F-1 will require 33" of vertical space to install the
housing and allow for changing the element. Belgoes Filtration Systems
fabricated a tilt mechanism for me that reduced that dimension. I have 9"
of clearance above the top of the F-1 housing. I drain the fuel out of the
housing, tilt the whole thing forward, and pull the element out of the top.
Without the tilt mechanism I would have had to use a different filter or
mount the F-1 under a floor hatch.

Regards,

Andy
