Got a couple of questions:

If an opti is causing a low rpm/part throttle miss or stumble, would converting cure it, or would I still need a new opti??

Is the LTCC system compatible with a Digital 6+ or Accel 300+ ignition system, or would I need to get rid of either (have two cars with each system).

How reliable has it proven to be?

What was the total cost involved too??

Thx.

I've seen very few LTCC owners who weren't happy. Do a search and you'll get all the info you need. It wouldn't hurt to try the LTCC first without removing the opti. It just might solve your problem. If it doesn't, replace your opti and you've got a pretty solid ignition for the future. Total cost for the LTCC could be:

$399 for the LTCC box
$50 for brackets for the coils
$100-300 for the 8 LS1 coils

I've got a source that sells the new coils for $20/each, so you're looking at about $560.

Can I sell/remove my ignition module when I change over to this?

Trying to sell my coil/module/Taylors as a package.
Let me know.

You will not need your ignition module or coil when you go with the LTCC box.

You might want to reconsider selling the wires. I reused my Taylors and they worked great. I mounted the LS1 coils under my cowl with some relocation brackets sold by Fischer Pontiac. Makes for a clean easy install. If you mount the coils on the valve covers, you can ditch the Taylors for shorter, more direct wires. Be sure and check with Turbo Bob about the best wires to use. Some seem to work better than others due to the shielding. The Taylors work fine on mine.

Since this is an Impala I'm going with fuel rail mounted coils.
I'll be buying a set of Taylor LS1 coil wires for this project.
