A quick look a the inner workings of a new optispark distributer for my Caprice. Its a good idea to put loctite on the 2 screws that hold the rotor down, they tend to come loose and will ruin your day. This particular optispark is an after market one sold by a member on the impala ss forum. He has had good luck with these so far, so I am willing to give it a shot. This is not one of the cheap-ass ones off ebay that die after a few hundred miles.
