Fuel supply cooling system for an internal combustion engine

A fuel supply system for an internal combustion engine, comprising:

• a base having a generally planar cavity formed therein;
• a fuel conduit disposed within said generally planar cavity;
• a manifold for directing a coolant into said generally planar cavity in thermal communication with said fuel conduit;
• a fuel pump attached to said base, an outlet of said pump being connected, through a first passage in said base, in fluid communication with an inlet end of said fuel conduit;
• and
• a filter attached directly to said base, an outlet of said filter being connected, through a second passage in said base, in fluid communication with an inlet of said pump, an inlet of said filter being connected in fluid communication with a fuel tank, an outlet end of said fuel conduit being connected in fluid communication with a fuel system of said internal combustion engine.
