Thanks Gary,
The model name of the BB30 converter I used is the : SUGINO BB30-IDS24 SUPER CERAMIC CONVERTER (13,650 Yen/ $156 US Dollars)

It is also available in a steel bearing version: SUGINO BB30-IDS24 CONVERTER (6,825 Yen/ $79 US Dollars)

I got a little bit of a discount on the ceramic bearing version, so I chose that one. The anodized blue was a part of that choice, along with the discount. I don't know how much of a difference, if any, that ceramic bearings will make in this application. I figured I would try them out anyway.
My next choice would have been the Praxis Works BB30 converter.
Third choice was FSA threaded sleeve adapter w/ Shimano Bottom Bracket.
In case anyone is researching BB30 converters, the Sugino was press fit into the bottom bracket shell with a .002 inch (nominal) interference fit. Keep in mind the bottom bracket isn't concentric after welding, so there is a little deviation in the inside diameter dimension.
