Fuel filter location

Where would be the best place to locate an inline fuel filter? I don't have a hard line from the pump to the carb. Also, what's the best type, canister, see-through, etc?

Thanks
Put it in the factory location.

If you are using AN-fittings and good braided hose, put a support clamp on the route from the pump up.
If using rubber hose, then buy or bend up a hard line. It will be worth it.
