Default 4L60E with manual valve body and lockup possible?

Maybe a dumb question but is it possible to run a full manual valve body 4L60E with a triple disk lockup converter to lockup at wot for dragstrip use?

Could this be done with a switch vs computer?

I believe it is commonly done on 4l80's but do not know if it is possible on a 60e. Don't have the knowledge of the inner workings to figure it out for you either. I'm sure FTI or Circle D could chime in and help though.

I can't speak for the transmission side of things for commanding the lock-up but for the converter to lock-up under WOT, a triple clutch is a must!
