Default bypassing stock fuel filter

I was trying to find info on bypassing the factory fuel filter housing. Seems that all the fitting and such could be more restrictive than needed. Just thinking if I use a fass or airdog filter type pump. Would that be enough filtering.

I like the fact that with my FASS feeding my stock filter I still have a fuel heater. Tho now when fuel gels it clogs my FASS.
