Unless its a upgraded opti, and i doubt it is. Then you can get them cheaper from Jason Cromer. But if it is upgraded i would like to know what they did to make it better.

They are genuine AC Delco. I think Jason's and Dal's prices vary greatly. At one time hot cam kits were going for $450. When i ordered mine it was $530, and now its around $480.

Jason Cromer is probably way cheaper, but if you need an opti fast, Summit will probably take 1-2 days at most. I ordered my Prothane trans mount Sunday night and got it Tuesday afternoon. 1 business day is extremely quick, especially nowadays. In a way its kind of a trade off since Jason isnt as fast as Summit is.

I wouldn't call Jason's service "fast" at least not in my experience with him. He does have great prices though, which makes up for the slower service to me. The speed that he ships stuff can't be compared with Summit though.

I agree 100%. The last time I ordered from Jason, I got a new intake elbow. I was starting to think it was never going to show up. Couple weeks at least before it came. However you couldn't beat the price.

You might want to try dal, he's in ohio. Just got an unvented opti from him 2 months ago for 280 and I got it in two days.

I don't think it is worth it for the lt4 conversion. Its not gonna give you what they quote. Thats for sure. Also Jason has always been on time maybe off by a day the most for me, and he is shipping parts from the other side of the united states. You have to remember summit has a few warehouses that they hold there products at. That is why they are always pretty fast. Jason on the other hand, his parts i assume come from where he works so it depends on how far away you are from them. Also he ships things that are cheap through regular post office mail. Sometimes they move stuff like snails.

I got an opti from Jason a month or so ago for less than $200 and had it in 2 days. Granted I am in GA, but the elbow I ordered this month even on backorder only took 5 days.

I guess I'm lucky, I'm close enough to Summit that I get my stuff the next day via ground shipping.
