Mike,
I think that the fuel damper is designed to reduced the
majority of the pump pulses generated. Kind of like a very primitive
regulator but allowing more for the pump rather than the injectors
affecting the pressure.
If you have a smooth flowing pump, it may not be needed. Maybe
Holden got a little overzealous when they designed the VL.
The fuel filter probably absorbs a bit of the pulsing too.
Any reason why you want to remove it? I doubt it would affect
flow rate much since from memory it is exactly directly in line
with the fuel flow. Rather it's sort of off to the side of the fuel line.
I can't see much to be gained from removing it (unless it's stuffed)...
