i use the B&M 24,000gvw supercooler
and the energy suspension polyurethane transmount.

the cooler has supported a midwest 3400/2.0, and a yank SS4000
i havent had trans problems yet,
and i drive the car as hard as i can every time i use it.
the es poly mount hasnt given yet,
and that is great considering i am using the TransGo shift kit
with the "three washer" setting
and type-f fluid.
i went through two stock-type rubber mounts real quick with this setup.
(first stock and second one stock-quality)

another good "insurance" i always recommend when doing a converter is a trans temp gauge. I have heard too many stories of people frying their trans.
