Fuel Filter on my '75

I've got this fancy glass filter in-line on my 75. I've read here that these can be dangerous and shouldn't be used. Thus, I'm looking to replace it. I see the correct filter would be the GF432 but that's for years 68-69.

Through searching here and websites, I haven't found an answer as to whether this will be a good replacement for me, or...if not, what would.

Can anyone help me out and shed some light on this?

Thanks!

might want to go with something like these. since it looks like you have screw clamp type connectors on the
SS braided hoses. the gf432 is an oem style filter, it would take some new plumbing to make it work with that dual feed carb.

Nothing really wrong with that glass filter. They have been used for years & years & years & years.
