C4-Trans brake

Does anyone know of a web page that shows how to make a trans brake for a c4?.
No expert tranny guy, But after i rebuilt this it seems to me would not be hard to make a trans brake for it. Or am i over looking something? Sure like to try to make one any help out there?
Thanks

Haven't ran across a website with the details, but if you could find a diagram of the fuild channels in the valve body you could them alter the fluid path to make the transbrake. This is pretty much what the others did when they made them. You would need to route the fuild so the modulator opening would lock the reverse and low clutch packs. You would also need to make a new seperator plate to help change the fluid paths.

The TB solnoid would still cost around 100-125 to finish the project along with a shift kit for the springs to raise the pressure.
