Default Reliable fuel filter/regulator options

Ive been looking to replace my fuel filter/regulator because its definitely original. Only problem is all of the filters I found are crap. Even the acdelco is made by wix and the wix filter apparently used to be good but it isn't anymore most people are having fuel regulator pressure problems ranging from immediately to a few hours after installing. So my question is who has had good luck and with what brand?

I've had a GF822 AC Delco in mine for 7 years now. No issues.

unfortunately both the acdelco and wix are the same exact product made in the same place. Ever since they changed where the fuel filters are manufactured the quality has gone down the drain. Very high failure rate!
