In need of a bad Opti-Spark unit
I am looking for an Opti-spark unit from any year LT-1 that has gone bad. In otherwords, the failed unit that has been replaced and someone did not throw out. It obviously does not have to work. Please E-mail me, PM me or post here if you have one that you want to get rid of. I'll gladly pay the shipping.THANKS!

Re: In need of a bad Opti-Spark unit
I can probably help you out. I live by Crystal Lake, but work in Aurora sometimes, I drive right down Randall road and most likely could drop one by.
It is a vented unit from an LT1 Caprice (1995) and still works with 205K on it, but I replaced it when I did new plug wires (also 205K on the originals).
Might I ask what you need it for?

The reason I am looking for a used Opti-spark unit is due to the fact that I am installing an aftermarket ECM in my car and in order to fire the injectors in the sequential mode, the ECM needs both a cam and crank referance signal. Since no one currently makes anything that is easily adaptable to the LT-1 motor, I need to modify the stock Opti-spark unit to create the needed signals.
