I don't spose you'd mind giving a link to that flebay opti? The only cheap ones like that I found were no-name brands, and prolly cheap Chinese made at that. Sure, they throw around the AC Delco name, but only as a part # reference to deceive buyers. You're not getting a brand new AC Delco unit for that kind of money.
Here's the real deal Delco, $518 at Summit: GM Performance 10457702 - ACDelco Replacement Optispark Distributors - Overview - SummitRacing.com

That's different then. With any kind of luck, the opti should last at least that long.

Would defintiely suck to be the next owner and have the opti crap out on the ride home.

^ Heh, heh, I know. And I doubt that one year warranty is transferable either. Might be better off not saying boo about it having a new opti, the buyer might ask what brand it is, and that could nix the deal.
