Default Burning up modules after HEI conversion

I've put 3 modules on after HEI conversion. Battery is putting out 14.7 volts average when running full. I am fairly new at this and need some assistance. Thanks in advance for your help.

Are you getting a good ground on the module?

IMG_3655.jpgI have the module attached to the plate that has the voltage regulator. I have the black wire from the voltage regulator grounded to the screw holding the module to the plate. That was the directions that I followed.

Did you remove the paint from under the module? You need good heat transfer.
Aluminum is best for that. You also need dielectric grease under the module.

Did not remove paint but have a 3 packets of grease under it. Does the paint make that big of a difference?

You have already burned through 3 modules. I think it's worth a shot. I would even go as far as sticking a block of aluminum under it.
