My accel junkti-spark has basically gone out and im doing a swap to a delphi soon. Does anybody have a link or anything of that matter to some detailed instructions of opti replacement? Ive been hearing alot about using RTV silicone and such, im new to LT1's and this will be my first opti swap. Unfortunalty my lift needs a new motor so the car will be up on jackstands. Thanks

if you buy a whole unit distributor, and not just a cap and rotor then you shouldn't have to deal with any silicone or anything. www.lt1engine.com has a simple write up on the install though..

i used RTV for the new water pump installation, and assembly lube on the Opti cam shaft, i put the two black rubber rings in hot water for a few minutes to loosen them up and make sure to align the notch correctly(A) with the cam shaft pin(C). i did a few test fits prior to final installation...

Ok thanks. Im surprised the accel made it this far. It was replaced July 07' by the previous owner. Thats what it says in the reciepts

WRONG! they always can use sealant and thread lock on rotor screws!

thats the first positive sentence i've heard about an accel opti
