Default A 1000 fuel pump

I have mounted a Aeromotive A 1000 pump in the rear of my vette.
Coming out of the tank I have a -10 shut off valve then -10 hose to the pre filter that is screwed to the inlet of the fuel pump, then the instuctions say to mount another filter after the fuel pump, Does this filter go farther toward the engine or at the outlet at pump.
I ask this because what filters all the hoses that connect to the fuel rails and injectors, one small piece of hose could cause alot of problems.

The second filter should just mount to the outlet of the pump.

Exactley as Bill said.

Clean your filters on a regular basis. If you have good quality hose, they should last several years before they break down.

100 micron before the pump, 10 micron after the pump.
