I couldn't find the answer either so I got an Aeromotive unit:

Black: https://www.aeromotiveinc.com/produc...k-fuel-filter/
Red: https://www.aeromotiveinc.com/produc...ss-orb-10-red/

They're smaller than the stock fuel filter so you'll need to come up with a way to hold it. I ended up buying one of Aeromotive's brackets (https://www.aeromotiveinc.com/produc...ilter-bracket/) and made an adapter plate out of .060 aluminum to mount it at the stock location.

^Thanks, I'm headed in the same general direction. Found this Fuellab filter that goes down to 6 microns that I'll probably buy:

https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fue-81831-1

Also available in a multitude of colors, its 6 micron filter element for gasoline/E-10 is replaceable & available separately for about $30. Since it comes with a clamp, and is a bit smaller than the OEM filter, all I'll have to do to mount it is cut & drill an AL plate with the appropriate holes to stick it in the stock location.
