As a sidebar, just remember, that the FFS fuel system from mid 03 to present date does NOT have a changable fuel filter.
The new FFS fuel system is a completely different design than previous c5. This system went into production midway through the 2003 production year. This system entails all new components. The fuel filter, as it is called in the drivers side fuel tank, is larger, and can last alot longer than standard c5 filters. It is a 10 micron filter, however, the design of the filter media is substantially different from any other in Corvette history. It is very efficient, and so far, has served us very well. What this design does is decrease the production costs of the car, enhance the damping effects of the fuel pump assembly with most of the fuel system weight in the tank, and simplifies the fuel lines going to the engine. When this system was in testing, there was many things that we checked, and enough fuel was run through this system to simulate 150,000 miles of driving in the city. No clogging was evident, and the efficiency was not decreased enough to harm the drivability of the engine.
