Default Jake th400 auto with transbrake ?s

Alright guys, im debating on what to do about my transmission.

Car is a 2000 trans am 370 twin turbo, 800-1000rwhp
Was looking at getting a 4l80e fully built without a transbrake because it would save me some $$$. They have a pretty big price tag. I like that I can put it in drive and go.
But then I was told about the th400 because this is just a weekend warrior and doesn't see much highway drive time. I was told I could go with some gears that would make it more streetable. Right now I have 3.73s.

The car has a built 4l60e and I actually prefer automatics, but the th400 are cheaper, and with the money id save going with it I could get a trans brake and still have money left over vs the 4l80e. I was looking at Jake's transmissions and seen he actually offers a auto valve body with trans brake. I tried to call but haven't gotten a call or email back yet. Does this mean it doesn't have to be shifted? That I can choose to shift or for it to do it on its own?

Thanks in advance for the responses!

I'm pretty sure we spoke to you Thursday.
That is correct. It retains all automatic features like a stock TH400.
