Air Dog dual filters, no seperator

After talking to Todd @ T&C and April @ F1, i have decided i want to run dual filters. I really don't see water contamination as a problem, its more about the garbage (solids) in the fuel.

I believe the threads for the water separator are 3/4"-16, which is different from the actual fuel filter.

is anyone else doing this and does anyone have any part #'s that would work?

Sounds like a worse setup. so you want to run fuel threw a (let’s say) 5 micron filter into another 5 micron filter? The first filter will plug and the 2nd will never get dirty. You’re better running the way they’re designed running threw a 20 micron filter “water seperate” to get out the “big” particles, then a 5 micron. The filters will last a lot longer that way too

The "big particles" will stop before the filter element regardless. I don't care if i go from a 5 micron to a 2 micron, which i am currently running. I want more filtration.

My air dog gauge will tell me if i am constricting flow, so i am not worried there.

I guess I'm the only one who thinks this is a good idea?..

Yep. If they were plumbed parallel you could run 2 same size filters, but they’re ran in series on the airgog/fass base

That's what Todd suggested. I might just add that back into the mix. I just don't want it under the hood.
