Default Which MSD distributor....

For 94 LT1: #83811 or 8381 w air hoses? Both have splined drive.
Anyone found one less than $515 sans a group buy?
Thanks

If you have 94 then you need to use msd-8381.

Not bad, $9.99 per order (included in the $441.77, shipped free)

Did you get your dyno run?

Just ordered some ComCam 1.6RR's(Performanceparts) using existing springs & cam should be a seamless install. Probably get me an additional 10-12
RWHP.... maybe. The fat lady hasn't sung yet! Will have on dyno by mid June.

You can choose from a per-order fee, or get a one-year membership. I was real happy with them - great prices and I received my order in 2 days.

I just bought one from a friend of mine who runs a chassis shop. He called his supplier and got one at his cost which was even less than the $441. Have friends in the performance business and you'd be surprised at the mark up even Jegs and Summit have.
