Default Rossler customers come inside

I have been dealing with Carl Rossler about a project I'm working on. I was referred to Rossler by my cantact at Lingenfelter. Rossler builds all of Lingenfilter's trannys. Anyway, I shipped my tranny to Rossler to get it built for the project I'm working on. After talking with Carl many times now, I have grown very worried. Every time I talk to him, I can be right in the middle of a sentance and then he just starts talking to someone else there at his shop. Then when we got down to what he was going to do, I asked him if he "Cryogenically" treats his internal parts or if he "Micro Polisheses" them. He said niether. He just replaces the weak parts with aftermarker stronger ones. Well that worries me, because every tranny shop in the COUNTRY I have spoken with either micro polisheses or cryogenically treats their performance parts.
What do you guys think...?

most cyro or micro polish the manual tranny parts, not the auto parts. That is not such a big deal, plus some tranny companies are full of ****. I had Rossler do some work in the past, but am more impressed with my latest A4 from rodney at RPM. Give them a call, they are reasonable, great customer service, and strongest trany I have had yet. I have a full weight car running low 10's and the tranny is fine.

I could not be more pleased with the work carl has done for me over the years. There is a reason shops like lingenfelter use Carl.

Very happy with my Rossler TH400 as well. Huge difference in my time slips with the TH400/neal chance over my previous A4 times.

I bought my Rossler TH400 used so I never got to talk to Carl personally but I absolutely love the transmission he built.
From what I have heard he strikes me as old school drag racer, does not deal alot with the new fangled stuff.
But no one can deny he builds some of the best transmissions to put behind a alot of horsepower.
