David,
Not one thing wrong with it. You'll have 5 Vac at 42 amps from both so they wont starve a bit!

"I am building a linear using a 4CX1500A that needs about 38 amps at 5 volts for the filament.I have two identical 5V 21A filament transformers.Is there any reason why I can't wire the two in parallel to get the required amperage the filament? I would put a current inrush limiter for a soft start."
