From my experience with the opti. My Cap and rotor parts were in good shape. But the optical side on the other hand. Was totally trashed. The last one I took out had a whole hell of a of rust in it. Therefore just replacing the cap and rotor portion won't solve your problem. You'll have a 50/50 unit. Which is useless. I'de rather wait for the entire unit to come on the market.

Would the new MSD opti be able to handle a MSD ignition box? From what I've heard the extra energy in the spark from the box causes corrosion or something.
Now if that new opti came with an ignition box all for $500, I would gladly pay that!

One question. The Non-vented unit says it comes with hoses. What are the hoses for if the unit is non-vented? Anybody know?
