If this truck does have a carter carb,chances are it shouldn't .I am a licensed mechanic and haven't personally ever heard of a 70's chev small block ever using a carter . Regardless, the filter should be somewhere inline ,due to the carter not having an internal filter .Like the rochester carbs.
if it's a four barrel, it's in the carb.

Somewhere in the area of 150-170 HP.
it is on the front of the carb. the fuel line going to the carb goes into a large bolt that connects into the carb itself. it is right inside of it. it is very easy to get to. mine gave me no trouble at all.
A four barrel carb usually adds about 20 hp.
The 1968 had 1 of 3 engines a 383 2 barrel carb, a 383 4 barrel carb, or a 440 4 barrel carb.
If equipped with the stock Rochester Quadrajet carb, there is a small fuel filter inside the carb in front right where the fuel line goes in. That may have been removed, however, and replaced with an aftermarket in-line fuel filter that could be cloated pretty much anywhere, but usually somewhat before the carb in the fuel stream.
Yes , but you also have to change the intake manifold

From the factory, the fuel filter would be in the Q-jet carb. You have to disconnect the fuel line at the carb and remove that housing on the carb. Filter is inside.
It may or may not have an inline filter, but, assuming it's the standard small-block 350/Rochester Quadrajet combo, there's a sintered-bronze filter under the inlet fitting in the carburettor. This is the large fitting the fuel line attaches to on the carb, typically towards the front of the vehicle. Keep in mind during reassembly the the largest open end of the filter faces into the filter adapter (the piece you removed from the carb) and the spring goes into the carb first, so as to keep the filter pressed up against the filter adapter. If there is an in-line filter, it'll be spliced into the section of fuel line between the mechanical pump and the carb.
