best cheap fuel filter?

[Pagman]

I remember reading somewhere on this site that there are good replacement fuel filters for the brick other than the expensive OEM ones, but i can't locate the threads. I know this topic has been beat down to hell, but I must ask, which is the best affordable fuel filter for the bike? I've read through other forums that a cheaper filter is not a good idea, but hey, it's just a filter. Ebay has them for $30, but I read that a guy bought a Hastings GF2 fuel filter for a few bucks at his local auto store and has put thousands of miles on it so far. Any recommendations?

They've been plastic at Autozones around here for the part several years.

I bought a luber finer ff3424. Seems solid enough. Now I need to replace the fuel line. I see that the submersible fuel lines are going for nearly 30 bucks a foot! Geeze. What would happen if I use a regular good quality fuel line? Is there a way to coat it? I know i'm being cheap, but hey, it's 30 bucks for a friggin fuel line!.... and i'll need more than a foot!!! :eek2:
