It would be interesting to know for sure whether they're using Mitsubishi optical sensors. I'm skeptical.

Bob, said they were back to the good ones...... Take it for what its worth.

Well if the owner is openly saying that the other optical sensors where junk and that he is going back with the good ones then I would have to beleive because if these "good ones" don't work every one will know that he wasn't telling the truth, call me gulable but I'm buying on.

If I'm dropping $600, I guess I would want some sort of verification up front, especially in light of the fact that just eight months ago they weren't going to use the "good ones" because they didn't want to buy 20,000 of them, which seemed to be a condition of purchase at the time.

I have one on the way from being completely rebuilt that should be here in a week or two. I'm debating on whether I want to run it for now with my 95 computer and timing cover and save a bunch of cash until I can afford aftermarket EFI, or sell it all to scrounge together a 24x setup.

If I decide to keep it I will probably pull the cap to check the sensor. I still feel that due to the FAR superior seals, rotor, and venting the unit is superior to any other aftermarket distributer no matter what the sensor. It seals not only cap to base, but base to block as well. The body is billet with revised venting, and the rotors are riveted on so there are no screws to back out.

If they really are back to the old sensors used - Mitsubishi or not - they would be worth it. Nobody had any issues with Dynasparks back in the day, and a lot of fast guys run them. If not, then the OEM w/ MSD cap and rotor would be the way to go. Price would be fairly similar but reliability would be higher then anything with an AIP/Ebay/Chandler sensor.

I guess I can update this thread in a week or two when I get mine back.

Haha wow I bought a Dynaspark and the vented hose on the bottom is stupid... It's hitting the crank hub. The fitting is directly above the crank. It needs to be somewhere else or a 90 fitting. Any one else notice this?

Thanks

Mine was close but it didn't hit.

Okay thanks. Yah my hose is definitely in the way. On the distributer itself one thing is it does seem to sound like it is rubbing or something on the inside. And there is one spot when you turn it sticks all the time. So something doesn't feel right. Maybe to save myself the hassle I should send back.

Yea I'd sent it back just to have them look at it. It may be nothing but it's better to be safe and a few days behind schedule that have to take it apart again. FWIW, there shouldn't be anything hitting/ touching/ rubbing the rotor and definitely not enough to make it stick!
