[NiftySVX]

The screen is inside the radiator. It was a production change. The point of the filter is to catch the debris from the defective torque converter clutch material that was coming off so that it wouldn't clog the screen. They changed the radiator to eliminate the screen and they changed the torque converter so it didn't come apart for the cars that they hadn't built yet. They put the filters on the ones in service as a field fix. None of the SVXs left the factory with a filter, because they changed the converter and the radiator and thus there is no need for it. This is also true of any SVX that has had a reman trans AND a new radiator OR one that has a new style converter and does not use the transmission cooler in the radiator.

In summary, there is no point in putting a filter on a 1994 or newer SVX. If you have anything floating in the fluid that the filter would catch, it's because the transmission has failed anyway, so again, there would be no point.
