Just wondering if any one with a cammed lt1 in southern CA is running a Bailey Engineering LTCC setup. If so how do you like it and how smooth is the idle and higher rpm ranges; if you are not too far from 91740 I would like to check your car out, just to get a idea of how smooth a cammed lt1 runs with a LTCC setup. Also If anyone in SoCal has a LTCC setup that they would be willing to sale me please let me know.

what's the reason for going to an LTCC?

I was going to go to a LTCC setup because in the last 2 years my car has been eating up optisparks; mostly rotor problems. A week ago the car shutdown on me again; no spark, so I figured the darn opti was out once again. But I found out a couple of days latter it was a blown ignition fuse; do to me hooking the electric water pump to the ignition fuse under the hood. I installed the water pump on its own circuit and replaced the blown fuse. This fixed my no start problem and now it runs a lot smoother everywhere except the idle is a little unsteady. I am assuming the LT4 hot cam I have might be causing the slight shaky idle, but I think it is just a little too shaky. Its not bad but I would like it to run so smooth that I can barely feel it running; I was wondering if a LTCC set up would smooth it out.

Large cammed LT1 here, but went with the EFI Connection 24x set-up. It idles pretty smooth The LTCC has no support, and frankly, was not really that widely used back in its day.

Yes I know efi connection is the best way to go for ignition on a lt1, but that is just too much $$. I don't see why a lt1 with a optispark ignition can't run smooth with a cam as mild as the hot cam. I think by running the water pump off of the ignition for a couple thousand miles I might have hurt my MSD opti. Because it is also kicking back on start up's every once and a while, when I say kicking back I mean it sounds and feels like it fires incorrectly fighting against the starter; I blew the nose cone off of my previous starter due to this. I thought I had fixed this by changing back to NGK tr55 plugs, but the motor kicked back on me again yesterday and today. It has a rough Idle that smooths out with throttle and the motor also kicks back on start up every so often; something is not right, I need to figure it out before I blow this starter up also.
