Water+Opti= and then (and it won't matter if the label reads "MSD" on it or not)

Nate, the wheels look good. You don't need suspension... you don't have any power in that turd

Just getting you fired up. I was hoping you'd spray that thing!

Stay away from the opti all together. Should have plenty of room by the cowl in the jeep to convert it over to a sbc style distributor.

Default Bree Olsen

Just a friendly heads up, Bree is going to be at Shang West on July 30 31 and August 1st.

http://www.myspace.com/shangwest

I heard that she was terrible as a dancer the last time she was in town. Might be worth checking out though.

Dont forget, Bridget the midget is in town this weekend!

Tell him to covert it to a regular style SBC Distributor. It will save him tons of headaches later

I'm sure you have been there done that, as have I. MSD doesn't fix the main problem of the optispark, just improves higher rpm spark performance a little.

What he said.

LS1 computer swap, harness repin, and 24x reluctor wheel and sensor on the hub would solve that. Thread in LT1 section

No. Still leaves the sensor in the same spot making it suspectible to water damage. Whether you have it vented or not.

Because you won't be able to control the massive power the rotary puts out at 7lbs.
