ATI is very reputable. If you take a look at the Hot Rod Magazine stuff, they sponsor a lot of their events, Drag Week, Pump Gas Drags, etc. They won't be going anywhere. Definately not a fly by night operation.

looking at thier site i noticed they are at events EVERY weekend, nationwide, and they go to SEMA. thier site seems very professional and not full of hype so thats a plus.

i sent in my resume a little while ago, hopefully they at least interview me, a piece of paper really doesnt sell who you are. they have posted the position 2 times now so they seem to really need the help.

Get the job, and I'll let you lay your employee discount on the trans work and torque converter for Wes' 408/C6 GT45 project. And then you can have a ride in it.
