Carter 4429s AVS carb inlet filter or none

[secordgoon]

Working on my brothers roadrunner. Not too familiar with mopars. Got a nice Carter 4429s AVS to put on it. Do they have an inlet filter or screen or none at all. I've seen ABFs with screens. Have a cone style but doesn't fit, too big. I have read different things about not having etc. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! I do have an inline fuel filter

My original 4429 didn't have an inlet screen. Never really had any issues without it.

Thank you for replying. I had read some didn't. Thanks again

I agree

if you run a in line filter you could leave it out.
... but i'm no expert

Thank you for the diagram. I'll look into it more. Getting some good info from members like you. Have a good evening!

Leave out #s 29, 30, and 31and use an EXTERNAL in line, full flow fuel filter. You will be better off as you do not want to screw up the threads in the air horn, R&R the noted parts numbers.....

Greetings. I do have an inline so I had wondered about messing with the little one. Thank you for messaging. That's what I will do then.

I think that diagram references a Chevy avs, not mopar. Mine came with a small canister type screen. They're just for lumps. I use them but a good cellulose will do better. They're not a make or break deal.

I have seen those screens and thought about them too. I appreciate all the input. Definitely helps me. Thanks!
