What to do with my TH400?

Here's the deal, I am gonna install a Turbo 400 in my 1994 Trans Am. The goal is to have a 9 second street car on a Supercharged 355.

I want a transbrake.
I want manual/automatic functions.
I would prefer a reverse pattern.

Do they even make such a thing? The only auto VB's I've seen don't have reverse, nor a transbrake. At least I could add a brake.

What are you guys using??

Steve: why bother with trying to get the thing to auto shift? I'm using the traditional reverse pattern manual VB with brake.

You have to have a reverse pattern for a transbrake. It only works with RP.
I love my TH400. Floor it, release button, see blue sky, shift.
