Fleetguard Lubricity Enhancing Filters

Is anyone using or has used the Fleetguard lubricity enhancing filters (FS20000, FS20022) that have a chemical packet in them, like the SCA coolant filters, for the older pre-ULSD engines rather than using fuel tank additives?  If so, what are your thoughts?

I wonder when cummins changed their position on lubricity
and fuel additives? I have used a cheap two stroke oil in my
fuel for years.

"Unique thread size prevents non-chemical filters from mistakenly being used" - wonder if you need to install an adapter or different filter head to use these filters

It does require a special filter head which is listed as * HeadAssembly–Part#3938173S. 

I'll be the guinea pig and give the #7 setup below a try.
