87 GT carbed...right now I have this filter and Im thinking it might be too small because my FPR is set at 6psi and sometimes it will creep up to 9 and back down to 6

this is the one I have right now...maybe too small causing a restriction?

I'd say it's highly unlikely your fuel filter is a restriction.
Me personally, i like the motorcraft originals.
