The TCSS blade socket is specifically designed to fit a vintage graflex. You shouldn't have any significant issues with it. It also comes with an integral V4 Heat Sink that threads right into it, so no need for a separate module.
The higher voltage duel-cell packs can be quite a bit shorter than the 3.7v 18650 single cell. That'll help a lot for making room for the CC. If you're going with the CEX I'm assuming you want the "any color of the rainbow" functionality? If you're careful you can simply use an RGB led for your CC. As long as you wire it right it'll change color right along with your blade. If you end up going with a single color (not using the CEX) you'll want to take advantage of the Crystal Pulse feature. In the event you do a fixed, but mixed, blade color you can still use an RGB led for your CC if you wire it correctly.
