Dynaspark, best customer service, rebuild costs and talk about long life.

You will be hard pressed to find a complaint on here about a Dynaspark, esp compared to MSD and others. They have been around for years.

I read on here ac delco no longer makes optis and that they are made in china now and the optical lenses are not mistubishi's any more, any truth to this? those dragonfire(?) optis look pretty good tho, I think I'll get one of those when the time comes.
