Where are people installing an inline fuel filters for a Aeroinjector system?

1. Forward of the firewall
Pro - easy access
Con - Heat soaking

2. Aft of the firewall
Pro - Less heat soaking
Con - Hard to access.

Thanks,
Pete

I considered in the cabin. Problem was getting it to fit while keeping a downhill run and not interfering with the pedals. I have a super short run if you check out my posts in my Cotton Waiex 191 thread.

Edit: read page 102 forward.

Mine = Firewall / Gold Cube fuel sender / fuel filter / short fuel line / AeroInjector.

I have the entire fuel system double insulated from the firewall to the AeroInjector, including the Gold Cube and the filter.

At this time I only have fire sleeve from the red cube to the carb. I haven't done much flying in hot weather and so far I've had no burb issues.
