Put your photo's on your desktop or documents hit the Browse button on the Porteighty web site and pick your picture. Upload it and it'll give you a url adrress for your pic. Its free so don't worry about shelling any $ to get it done. Heres a sample of what it'll look like once done, this is one I uploaded the other day.

Wow...this is something I gotta see to believe. Did you install the parts yet? If so, how is the quality and after results.

The rotor looks a lot tougher. I had a buddy that blew up his new opti reving it up and the metal tab broke off the rotor. On the stock rotor the metal conductor is held on by a plastic rivet vs the metal one on the MSD.

Not sure if it's been posted here, but MSD is now producing complete OPTI units.

Dammit! And I just ordered a new GM one from Scoggins-Dickey. But as long as it's taken them just to get the cap & rotor out, I wonder if these complete units are actually available yet? This will render the Dynaspark Opti useless as long as they can make them the same cost or cheaper.
