Fuel filtering and Bendix injection?

[Battson]

Hi all,

I have a legal requirement to install a gascolator, which I am doing.
I have an engine in the works with Bendix fuel injection, and the boost pump I am buying (EFII BPM) comes with an modular filter. Should I install the filter and the gascolater too?

I am tempted to avoid the filter if I can (one more thing to block / leak / change at annual), and I am told the pump is robust and it sounds like the gascolater will protect it. But what are the chances of smaller particles getting through the gascolater and potentially blocking the injector nozzles?? That would be worse...

Thanks for your help!
