I dont know if there is enough room to attach them directly to the hx but  I think I like these better (1" and threaded)  :

Now that's a great idea!!

House side is gonna bung up first, especially if you slap a plate on the old DHWT.
It's full of crap!!!!...

Om mone, since the hotwater tank is downstream of the exchanger on the domestic supply loop the plate shouldn't be getting any of the tank crap in it, should it?

Need to redo mine and put valves on where it is easier to pull it out of the system.  I might get another identical one and keep a clean one on hand at all times too.

Right, sorry,, mine was hooked up like a siphon and it would of got bunged up quick.
It would pick up water from the bottom of the tank.

Plumbed properly xch. would get fresher,, although still hard water, from the well.

I got rid of it and put a side arm in .[less plugging up in my mind]http://outdoorwoodfurnaceinfo.com/forum/index.php?topic=6915.0
