Default MSD optispark cap

Has anyone here had actual experience with the MSD cap and rotor kit for the optispark? I'm looking at the 95 style for rebuilding my optispark unit, or putting it on a new distributor.

Are they an actual product that is shipping or are they still the vaporware they have been since SEMA last year?

I finally got my kit about 10 days ago- looks like a good product but no chance to install yet.

I spoke to a tech from MSD a couple of weeks ago and they said they were already shipping them. Unfortunately the waiting list is huge so there wont be many available to consumers right away.

Default 94/95 Cap interchange

I see cap and rotor kits for the 95-96 for sale all the time on ebay, so somebody besides MSD is producing them. What is necessary to change to make one of these work on a 94 style?
