Default Any feedback on MSD opti ?

We are debating whether to put a new MSD opti into my Lt4 or go with the GM. Heard some rumors on other forums that the MSD needs more perfecting. Hope they are just rumors. Any one here have any input?
We appreeciate all comments.

I cant say whether there are problems with them but I've had mine installed for several months with no issues. The build quality is top notch, I would recommend one over the GM unit

Speaking as Legion's installer, the unit went in with no problems at all. Some have said clearance is tight with a stock water pump, but I had no such installation difficulties. As I said in the other thread: Put it in and go! I've been using MSD products for years and can recommend their Opti (I've sold a bunch of them with ZERO problems!)

As a matter of fact, I'm going to replace the Opti in my '92 with one of my MSD units, that's how much confidence I have in it... I won't sell a product to a customer that I wouldn't use myself personally.
