Shift Kit

I'm tring to pick out a shift kit for the TH350 in my truck when it gets rebuilt. I really want it to bark the tires in the 1-2 shift, when the engine gets revved up to 3500-4000 rpm. I don't want it to bark the tires when i am just driving around town, around 2000 rpm, because it would proably make my tires not last as long, and attract too many cops. I have a pretty fresh 350 in my truck, with about 300hp. I was looking at a RV/Heavy Duty shift kit, proably a B&M Transpack. Would this shift kit give me a nice, fairly firm shift when i am just driving around, and the tire bark when i mash the throttle? I was also looking at the street/strip Transpack, but i have seen several guys running them, and almost every time their tranny shifts, it barks the tires, even if they are not being heavy on the throttle. So, is the RV/Heavy Duty the one i am looking for?
