Sorry guys I have yet another question...Can you use a standard automatic/manual valve body with a trans brake??Or would you have to go with a full manual valve body??? I would like to manually shift the car at the track but select the auto position on the street, thats why I was asking..Probably going with a 3000 to 3500 stall if it helps any..

From my understanding a manual valve body is a part of the trans brake option. There may be someone that knows more about it than me on here. My 400 is a full manual valve body with trans brake.

my 400 is reverse pattern full manual with the trans-brake... have not seen them with any automatic capabilities but that doesn't mean they don't exist.

Takes some getting used to. You dont use 1st much other than to leave a stop. The reverse pattern was the hardest to remember for awhile. It works though.
