I now have a Delta splitter mounted on my old Unisaw.

But I haven't tried my Gripers with it yet,so what is the consensus of opinion on this matter?

Not sure how you'll use both simultaneously--isn't that splitter higher than the Grripper?

No can use the "Gripper" over the blade when you are using the splitter.... if the "Gripper" is what I think it is. I use shop-built push blocks...cheap and effective. And I make them in different thicknesses.

One thing I ended up doing with my Biesemeyer splitter is bagging the pawls...they both get in the way and also can scratch certain softer materials and veneer plywoods. That was a personal choice, however... ;) ...and is not to be construed as a "recommendation".

I use a couple of grippers religeously and you will not be able to use them and that splitter. The same company that makes the gripper also makes a splitter that works really well and is inexpensive. I think I paid around $15 for it.
