Check out my sweet Opti rotor failure (Pics)

This Borg Warner cap was just a couple weeks old. What an awesome part.. Don't be cheap with your distributor!

I've got a brand new vented MSD cap and rotor in the for sale section if you are looking to get back up and running.

That is impressive looking though. I always feel a bit happier when I know I've broken something, but it occured in a spectacular fashion.
