Either way, if you buy a lockup trans, there's a kit out there you can install to disable the lockup. It will only lockup in third so if you have it floored, it will only go into lockup after it settles into third. Without WOT, it locks at about 30 again, after it shifts to 3rd. There is also a kit that delays the lockup to 40 mph to eliminate shudder with the lockup.
