There are two ports right by the oil filter in the block for a bypass system to be plumbed in. The smaller one is the pressure supply to the bypass filter, the larger one is of course the return. IIRC, those are a 1/4 supply and a 3/8 return. I bought a discontinued NTZ filter housing and two cases of filters (should be good for about 400,000 miles of driving if I change the filters every 20,000 miles). The housing had to be retapped for NPT threads as they're metric stock. I used 5,000 psi rated abrasion resistant hydraulic line for all lines. The NTZ system filters the oil axially from the outside to the inside instead of the entire length of the filter element, this forces the oil through the densest part of the media.
I buy Premium Blue at Napa when they have a sale on. I plan to run PB in my Cadillac 500 engine after it's rebuilt and installed in the Suburban.
