B&M Quicksilver shifter with a new Turbo 400 w/reverse manual valve

I just purchased a new turbo 400 with a reverse manual valve body and I currently have a B&M Quicksilver shifter mounted in my '34 ford. The old trans was a Turbo 400 auto so the shifting was a forward pattern and I usually used the "Drive" position. This new trans will require an opposite shifting pattern P,R,N,1,2,3. Can I use this same shifter? Would I need a reverse plate mounted or any fabrications done? I don't have a transbrake. I appreciate any recommendations.

The Shifter will work with RMVB but, the Indicator Window will be off.
You will need BMM-80618 window for PRN123 pattern. May only be available from B&M.

I can't get ahold of them. The B&M phone lines are constantly busy with only a recording saying to call back another time. And the online parts catalog do not have part number 80618 listed. Any suggestions?

Disregard, I finally got ahold of them. The rep indicated they were moving so they were short on phone lines.
