When you say "never got an answer" do you mean nobody picked up the phone at their shop when you called, or do you mean that you spoke with someone but didn't like what they had to say?

Unfortunately I was unable to get a hold of anyone after calling myself a few times. Not sure the reason why or what was going on but I didn't get the "warm and fuzzy". I was never actually able to speak with anyone there so I kept looking. Sorry I don't know the owner of the shop on here if they are on here as i'm a pretty new member- so I'm not trying to put anyone down, etc- i just found something more suitable for my needs- that is all.

I really was looking for a one stop shop kinda deal as I do not have the time to take the truck here for a week and then there for a week and then over there for a week and chase parts in between and then re tune it for what everyone did and hope it comes out OK. I had to make a decision of what was best for me.

How would you get a "warm and fuzzy" if you never spoke to anyone? When did you try to actually call the shop? The reason I ask is because the shop is open from 8am to 6pm Monday through Friday and during those hours I personally have the phone on my hip all day. If you would have actually called and spoke to myself or Rob, we could have told you that between Griffin Transmission and Charleston Performance Solutions we might have been able to build you exactly wharf you're looking for. I'm sure nobody's upset that you're taking the truck somewhere else, just knida sucks for you having to drive up there and back when you drop/pick-up the truck. Not to mention the fact that you won't be able to swing by at anytime and take a look at the progress.

Tyler, read your post again dun-dum. Don't you think the fact of me being a Jew would be a reason for me to always answer the phone? Every time that phone rings (minus the tellamarketers) there's a potential customer on the other end, which means dolls-dolla bills for the shop! I've actually been trying to get folks outta the habit of calling Rob's cell phone cause he has to stop building transmissions to talk on the phone, which means less dolla-dolla bills sucka! You just gotta do a little better on your Jew logic Tyler.

Yeah I'm not sure why but I just never got an answer. Seriously not trying to down anyone or what ever - since I know you guys have the capabilities now I'll be looking for someone locally to service it among other things and maybe even do some other mods in the future. I know I'll swing by for a dyno run sometime after it's done. I called during the week I believe twice on a Tuesday, once the next day, and once the day after that all between 10AM- 3PM ish (always around my lunch hour or later). Like I said not sure why maybe the stars didn't line up, ETC..
