    ** hydraulic filter ** as AT trans filter ???!?

    ok, so if i were to pick the mcmaster-carr 4358K43 filter with a 5 micron rating it should be the best bet right? assuming if i go for 30k mile fluid changes, on a 6L80, with severe duty usage, heavy towing, etc and a giant trans cooler my trans should be safe for a while right? thanks for the...
