Stock trans ?'s

Besides a valve body, is there any upgrades that are worth doing? Such as bigger trans cooler, deeper pan, torque converter? My trans has 30,000 on it. I don't tow much anymore. I just don't want to dump money into it if there's really not much to benefit from. Hopefully in two years there will be a bts In there. I have no mods other than intake and dp.

If you don't tow much and its only got 30k on it it better last quite a while, especially behind a stock motor. Bigger trans cooler is always a good idea, but if you don't tow much not completely necessary for sure. Deeper pan is just a waste of money, not needed. Didn't you get a new convertor if your trans only has 30k on it? If you drive normal and not like a kid with a mustang, that stock trans will last a long time. Just a shiftkit to firm up the shifts would be good enough imo.
