Fuel Filter Part # (LG4)

I'm looking to cross reference a part number for a fuel filter for an LG4. I want to make sure I get the right part, I've spent one too many days going back and forth between the part store lately. I'm looking for the part # for a stock fuel filter for the CC Carb on an LG4 (1986 Trans Am). A couple of the part numbers I have found are as follows:

WIX 33052
Fram CG3389
Purolator F10158

If anyone happens to have changed their fuel filter before and remembers the part number or has record of it somewhere I would appreciate it.

Can't see any benefit of paying more for a "brand name" fuel filter when they will be the same as an AutoZone filter.

Part # FF104 at AutoZone is what I use on my car.

Just look at www.fram.com
(On my TPI car the AC fuelfilter has part# : GF 481).

The only difference I've found in price is about $0.50 to $2.00. Not that much of a difference, but it all does add up in the end right. Thanks for the info Nate.

Also, just to double check, the filter in the carb is the only filter on a CC Carb car correct? I've searched and this seems to be the general consensus.

Those are the correct p/n's per partsamerica.com . I used the Fram.

There is also a filter sock inside the tank on the pickup. More of a strainer than a filter.

Yeah, I knew about the sock inside the tank but I wasn't sure if there was an inline filter somewhere between the tank and pump. Thanks guys.
