2 inline oil filters?

I'm thinking out a kit $30 that fits on the oil filter housing that will let me use 2 FL1A's cool!

What you all think?
It would be on my 78 w/rebuilt 300 I6w/ 1300 miles
Thanks,
dustin

I think if I were to use that kit, I'd run 2 Napa 1773 oil filters. They look about 1 1/2 times the length of the normal FL-1a. This should minimize pressure drop.

The longer filter has a higher gallon per minute rate. It's a FL299 or equivalent. I am running the Purolator and Fleetguard vesions. 7 inches long, vs 5.4 for the FL1A.
