Questions about this item
How does the 3 3/32 in length affect installation space?
The 3 3/32 in overall length keeps the base compact enough for tight engine compartments while still providing two outlet ports for secondary filtration routing.
What does the 1/4-18 NPT thread size limit for hose connections?
The 1/4-18 NPT inlet and dual outlets restrict fittings to that exact thread standard, so adapters are required for any hose or line with a different thread pitch or diameter.
Will the 4 11/16 in outside diameter clear the mounting bracket on a Detroit Diesel?
The 4 11/16 in outside diameter matches the factory mounting pattern for Detroit Diesel engines, allowing direct bolt-on without spacer plates or custom brackets.
