I've just been using a single CP1-12710 (40mm/85-110W) on a modified motor heatsink to clamp it on.. I wonder if I go big and get a 50mm/180W unit.. heheh..
50mm peltiers wont be more effective.
2 peltiers are glued together with Thermal Epoxy and wired in series. The heatsink I use is a 60mm heatsink/fan combo from Fry's electronics. This has the copper base and does a great job drawing the heat from the Peltiers.

Make sure you use a fanguard on top to protect your pinkies
I use 1 1/4" copper tubing split down the middle for the clamp and a flat piece of copper between the clamp and the peltiers. These coolers are much more effective than the MuchMore units, especially in very warm summer temperatures.
