well after further testing it looks like my opti has craped out, so i need to know where the best place to buy one and what's the best brand to buy
and while i've got it apart is there anything else i should consider replacing such as coil and or icm (or whatever it's called that's nounted near the coil)

thanks
brad

 

I didn't think they put an opti on the f-bodies until mid 80's? Or is this not for the vehicle labeled in your garage?

 

Get your opti at orilleys it has a lifetime warranty

And they started the opti in 93

 

K, I just new how they had to tweak it a little bit from early models and assumed it had been out a few years prior. But stick with Delphi/AC Delco units.

 

one of our site sponsors sells optis for under 200 bucks. chandlermotorsports. msd and gm performance are the best opti's but you pay for it. put a new water pump in if its old. dont want it leaking on a new opti and ruining it.

I just read through the vendors pages, I too am looking to replace my opti here soon. It seems this vendor has a good track record but have you used them or know anyone who has that can provide an actual feedback on the product? Still unable to locate an actual brand or name behind their product on the pages I've looked at. It all just says Chandler motorsports, could possibly mean they manufacture their own units?

 

we have a few members that are running them now and i have not heard any complaints. post on the thread and ask em. he's on here all the time.

 

i got a chandler opti for just over $100 so far so good but ive only drove the car about 100 miles

 

Well for a lifetime warranty opti running just over $160 it sounds great to me! ha

 

thanks for the replies, i'll give chandler motorsports a look
are there anything else i need to check or replace while i have it apart
