Opti spank? What is it? Not under the water pump? Nah, they wouldn't put it there where it could get wet, or where it would be really hard to service?
If there was opti-spank it would be right where you could get to it. I'm guessing that my car runs by magic, theres no ignition system that I can see.

At least the L-98 is easy to fix, and the C-5 is crank fired? The opti-spank is the bane of LT-1 ownership. But the power makes up for it. ASR what the hell is that? Kicks back so hard it hurts my foot.

Under the water pump? Next thing you know they'll put the fuel pump in the fuel tank. Why not bolt the steering wheel to the spare tire? The air bag stays at home when I drive my Corvette, she slows the car down.

Opti-spank = commie plot.

I call it "OptiDark," cuz when it goes, it's lights out for the combustion chambers. But let's face it fellas. It's still better than having a Lucas (a.k.a. Prince of Darkness) electrical system. :)
