Yep, I had planned to just keep my computer hard drive magnets in place because they are so extremely strong that they'll never come off until you pry them off. When playing with a pair of them, they will pinch and draw blood so you have to respect them. Of coarse they won't capture aluminum, but whatever they capture can only help.
I should have mentioned I have 3 of my own magnets placed about.
1) bottom of engine oil pan near the drain plug.
2) bottom most portion of the transmission pan
3) bottom of engine oil filter
For you who don't know what a hard drive magnet is, they vary in size, shape, and strength. I have found the best in the oldest desk top computer hard drives, like windows 98 for example.
They are at the bottom of this picture.

This is a great vid.
Torqueshift fluid and filter change
Takes me a couple hours labor.

At that time I'll put synthetic in. Synthetic in the tranny is the only thing I ever did that improved mileage - not much, but measurable.

Good video. That guy is a character! He mentioned 40,000 miles on the changeout of transmission fluid. I guess that is what I need to consider, and maybe not years?
