All of the race Minis that I have done in the past 15 years use a similar 
set-up. We use an external Mecca (Canton) 40 micro mesh screen on the suction 
side of the stock pump. It is amazing what that filter picks up!

The oil then goes through the pump, cooler & regular block mounted filter and 
back to the motor.
