Default B&M Pro Rachet

So I was at the NHRA drags a couple months ago and I was at the B&M booth talking about what is out for our transmission and I came across the B&M Pro Rachet which was made for the 4L60 NOT the 4L60E...

Since my trans. is a FVMB I was wondering if this would work for it?

I'm doing this the lazy way and seeing if any of you guys know, I haven't called B&M yet (BTW the guy at the B&M booth was stupid and had no idea)

The Pro Rachet is like a Triptronic they use on the European cars.. where you push the stick all the way forward and it changes one gear, and then it has a lever to go into Reverse and into Park

I worked for B&M a couple of years ago. The Pro-Ratchet will work on a 2, 3, and 4 speed auto. It could careless if it was Forward or Reverse, you simply need a different tag/label to indicate the gear you are in. The 4L60 and 4L60E are the same, interm of the shifter mechanism.
