We have a '94 Corvette that we built a 383 for, and added an ATI ProCharger D-1SC. We have had numerous problems with the optispark in this car. We went through several factory optispark distributors, recently added the Accel distributor, now we have an MSD cap and rotor on top of the Accel distributor. The MSD cap and rotor are of a much better design, but after several hundred miles the two screws on the rotor came out. This has been one of the problems we had in the past with this car. We just used loctite on the screws the other day. Anyone else have problems like this? Bob

I have heard of problems like that Bob. I have also seen some cars eat opti's non stop for no apperent reason. Worst part is if you have a vented Opti you have to run the rotor to hold the Opti wheel in place

We just don't see why it would cause the screws to back out of the rotor. It is very perplexing, to say the least! Bob
