yeah, we used to buy a lot of stuff from adsit, including all the
transmissions and injection pumps.  all that stuff that would come to
you from longwood, FL was from adsit

really, the product is fine but they genuinely despise their customers
from the top down.  my understanding is that they are an absolute
misery for the retail customer to deal with.  on the wholesale end, we
never dealt with the indiana operation but would just catch that abuse
second hand from the florida operation and then we'd all laugh at the
indiana operation for being assholes

the adsit rebuilds were done in muncie, IN, which is really the heart
of the transmission building world.  they were solid and we had few
issues with them.  rusty originally used that neoconfederate guy, ron,
but they had a falling out and we used adsit for at least a decade
that i know of.

i can't say whether rusty switched over to sun valley some time after
i left or not.  it is possible.
