I have added inline spin-on filters to C-6 equipped trucks with no ill effects, and I was wondering if this is possible with the 4R70W? I have no idea how it would affect line pressure (if at all) and was wondering if anyone has tried it. I was thinking a 2-Qt dual system to add capacity of both filtering and capacity.

If your tranny fluid needs filtering that means the tranny is on it's way out.... I see a rebuild in your future.

While your proposed setup may work fine, it would also be massive overkill for a street car. The only external filter recommended by Ford is the Magnefine inline filter. They have been around for many years and have a very good reputation. If you want more fluid capacity, add a bigger pan.
or another external oil cooler in series with the OEM cooler, as many have done.
