Fuel Filter on 2007 Caterham 7 SV with Ford Zetec SVT?

[Taber10]

Based on the amount of really useful information that I got when I posted my Diff fill plug, I thought I would see if anyone knew or could recognize my fuel filter.  My mechanic couldn't read any numbers on it, and didn't want to remove it before procuring a replacement unit.  Any suggestions for what filter it might be would be appreciated.

This is what I got for my Zetec from Redline

That certainly looks like it could be the same filter. You could remove the mounting bracket to verify, but I'm sure there's a p/n located someplace on that original filter.

I don't quite recall if the replacement # matched my # directly but if it was green lit by Redline I didnt question it. Has been working fine for me.

Just a quick update as I had an hour of free time this early afternoon and I'm proud to say the original Delphi FF52 fuel filter, with it's June 2002 date code has now been excised from the car. Both the previously mentioned  Fram G3727 and the ACDelco GF952 are within a 1/16th of an inch difference in length, I decided on the FRAM G3727 as it appears to be a better built unit of the two, I'll hold on to the other just so I have a back up in the garage. Pressurized the system found no leaks, and fired the car up on the second turn of the key. I'm now waiting on the new Motorcraft SP463 Plugs to be gaped at .050 per Tom (1turbofocus) the high impedance 30lb/hr injectors, and the MSD coil and wire set. If I get time tomorrow I'll do the oil and oil filter change while I wait for everything else to arrive...Then dive in to the rest in short order and hopefully be able to take the car around the block and further.

 

Thanks to all who have assisted so far.

To break out the quote of my post above:

 

Fram G3727 and the ACDelco GF952 will both be a bolt in swap for your current fuel filter.
