where is the cheapest place to buy a nonvented opti.

I think my opti is going to crap... it has some miles on it, and I changed plugs yesterday and noticed my back driver side was wet with some fuel, and looks like it is not getting any spark or really low spark. it's not throwing any codes, new plug wires... so Im thinking the opti is starting to go bad. does anyone know where I can get a great deal on a new non vented opti?

I don't want to switch to vented. because I don't want to hassle with getting a new cam pin. and timing cover and stuff. I'll be happy with the non vented... just dont' know where to get a good deal at? thanks...

Re: where is the cheapest place to buy a nonvented opti.

Jason Cromer [parts dept] at Sam Taylor Buick/Cadillac in Florida 877-726-8295
or Dal Slabaugh [parts dept] at van devere Buick/ Pontiac in Akron Ohio 877-448-5451 or email lockitup@bright.net
have the best deals.. prob about 310 or so for a GM unvented opti..
Also, you need more than a cam pin to go to vented style,you need the hole cam..... a lot of people seem confused on that fact.. there's a nose drilling on the vented opti cams [95-7] that isn't there on 93-4 cams..

That's only for the cap and rotor. It's not the whole opti.
