Shane!

Great news! Congrats on repairing your Ignition System!

For future reference for all my Optispark buddies:

Accel makes a nice Cap & Rotor. The Intermediate piece between the Cap & the Optispark has 2 very thin silicone gaskets that help keep the inside dry & spotless.

Accel also sells a nice Ignition Coil.
I like the Bright Yellow color! lol

Save the 👋!

The caps and rotors from MSD are the best so far, from what Brad (Optidoctor) found out. The MSD units have better leads in the caps. After all, they build their parts to be compatible with their MSD boxes. I have an MSD 6A to go in the car, but not until I put the rebuilt Opti I have in, or redo mine with a MSD cap and rotor. It seems the MSD complete Opti's aren't as good as the 2nd generation OEM ones, but the caps are better. Otherwise Brad wouldn't have used them exclusively in the units he rebuilt and sold.
