BMM-70264 is the 24K GVW one. Should take ~1-1.5hrs to install one. Just gotta cut the lower ATF cooler line (should be the return line) and put your cooler in with it.

It's the upper I believe. That's the cooler you want too.

The return to the trans is the upper
Cut the upper
Out from the rad (top line )to the cooler
Out of the cooler to the top line back to the trans.
I also used the Super Cooler
Check Fyler's website - he has good photos of his install
Easy hour - 1.5 max
I did get extra cooler hose for my one line - not enough in the kit
Pep Boys - Hayden hose for trans coolers.
Little flat black - looks factory.

Default What About This?

Well I'll be getting the Transgo and vette servo installed but I wont be getting the supercooler done for about a month will I be ok for the most part having those items without the supercooler in there? I assume I have a stock one I cant get out and check right now! What do you guys think on being able to get the cooler for a month or less?

If you have a towing package, you have the stock cooler, you can get away with that one for a while, but when the power starts coming on, I'd get a better one in there. You will be fine with just the servos, as they don't create any more heat than the stock parts. Now ... add the shift kit, and the added line pressure will benefit well from the extra cooling, and even more so with a bigger converter.

Default I ordered a supercooler!

I went ahead and ordered the B&M supercooler(BMM-70264) debating if I want to pay the guy doing my Transgo+servo to install it since I probably dont have one!
