I was wondering if a mounted harrow like a Wingfield flexible harrow or a Remlinger 1 bar with single or double roller does better in the field for smoothing the soil and not plugging up? What would the advantages be of one over the other? Or is there a better one that i am missing out there?

70Deere, I'm piggybacking your post. I am also looking into what I shouyld mount on my newly aquired IH 45 feild cultivator, I need to add something or pull a drag so my soybean feilds are nice and harrowed.
This one here has a 4 bar coil tine harrow and I would not change it to anything else.
I have had other types of harrows and what I have found is the longer the teeth and the farther apart they are spaced the better they will work without balling up the stubble in minmum till.
That is why four rows of teeth are better than 3. They still cover all the ground with being farther apart side to side.
Rollers will ball up in damp conditions and short teeth will drag a lot of stubble.
