Although I am still on the stock opti, I'm sure mine is soon to go. Count me in!

Count me in, and my buddy with his 93 TA too!
What a bunch of wussies...complicated design and location. That doesn`t scare me. If a supercharger can fit under the hood, I`m sure as hell sure a distrubtor will. I guess MSD doesn`t want to make money? Well some one try Accel or Crane.

I have three LT1 cars. I'd be very interested in a quality replacement.

Hell, I just put in my fourth opti in two months. This one is an AC Delco unit, so I hope it holds up a little better. But I would probably buy an MSD just to have in the toolbox when this one gives out.

Perhaps we should all mail MSD.

count me in , i just installed a new opti and didnt think about pressure washing the engine bay while it was out so id love to hear that there is a better alternative to the p.o.s we have now. I truly love my lt1 but the opti is seriously the weak link. 450.00 bucks not to have to mess with that damn thing anymore, id pay that the day it was released.

I'm in for a Opti replacement.

If MSD gets serious about this then we may want to include the corvetteforum.com guys on the request.
