Even if the torque converter is locked and 2nd is electronicly selected the sprag is active so you have drive from the engine but that is it otherwise it's a box full of nothing! unless you can activate the clutch brake on the sprag as the trans does when you select 2nd manually
the stock TCC will burn out in short order if you try and lock it under anything but cruise loads.
a multi-plate TCC with a billet front cover for the torque converter would be ideal then you could have a 3000 or 4000rpm stall but only use it for 1st gear under "race" conditions and use it to split each gear under normal conditions.. ie 1st, 1st locked, 2nd, 2nd locked etc etc....
