I like that setup.
I added both the Wix and Magnefine in front of the radiator. I think they are free-flowing enough to put in series.
When I swapped the fluid it was pretty black although not burnt. I got nervous after reading about horror stories about failed transmissions after a complete flush. The only problem I ran into (after the flush) was backing up the transmission would lock up and stall the V-10I put in the Lucus and the problem was immediately gone.
That set-up poses a question I'd want to have Mark Kovolsky's opinion about before saying yes to no whether that's a good idea. Naturally depending on the pressure drop each filter adds would be of concern---to me anyway.
I like that setup.

I'm looking at adding better quality clamps and doubling them up or the possibility I have too much transmission fluid in the tranny after a flush and adding a quart of Lucus. Last I checked there are no codes (including transmission) on either vehicle.
Any ideas?
Clamp wise I'll use either good quality USA-made spring clamps or "pinch clamps". Both do require a barb or similar in order to be truly effective.
