Anything I am forgetting?

I have already had my transmission rebuilt and now I want to beef it up a little (or a lot). These are the things I have planned:

*Trango shift kit
*Vigalante ~2700 Converter
*Transmission cooler
*B&M kickdown vlv. thingie
*New speedometer gears to compensate for the new 3.42 rear I am about to install.

Is there anything I am forgetting? BTW, I don't know anything about a Vette Servo, so info on that would be appreciated.
Thanks.

The 2700 will be fine IF your power band starts then, otherwise you will be wasting power.

Make sure the cooler is a TruCool.

The B&M thingy has varying results, depending on what you have now.

The 'Vette Servo has the largest apply area of the three that GM makes. You likely have the 553 which is the V-8 Servo and it is fine in most cases but the 'Vette Servo has more holding power in 2nd and gives a firmer shift into third.
