Anyone familiar with the Wix brand fuel filter?
I'm looking to replace the fuel filter on my C5. Wix makes good quality products, IMO, and their fuel filter (part # 33737) is about half the price of the corresponding AC Delco (part # GF822). However, I note that the AC specifically mentions that it contains an integrated fuel pressure regulator; I would assume that this is something that is needed on our cars. I can find no information as to whether the Wix has a similar regulator. If it doesn't, that could explain the disparity of price, but on the other hand, the AC may simply be overpriced .
So does anyone have some specific knowledge regarding the Wix filter and whether it contains this pressure regulator?
TIA

Is this car in Minnesota? I know of a car exactly like this, but I didn't know it was for sale. It wouldn't surprise me, because the owner seldom drives it. If it's the same car it would be easy for me to check it out for you.
