I'd alter my transmission to think it was always warm enough to lock up, but for fear of damaging something. Simply finding the correct amount of resistance to simulate a 180* transmission would be simple, but does locking up the TC when it is cold do any harm? I suspect it is an attempt to get the engine warmer faster in part, but it is hard to know without knowing automatics as intricately as I'd like to.
