Delco is good. I use them in vehicles a bunch. Okay, prob several hundred times. And handful times in boats. It’s Just it’s aluminum posts corrode faster inside the cap than the brass ones in the Accell. So, it depends on people’s maintenance schedule.

SB.......Thanks for the item listing!......I've found all the Accel cap & rotor kit #8132 are in the general range of $35 to $45 .......I found this on Ebay https://www.ebay.com/itm/38476899092...Zlhl1SQ.....is it much cheaper for a reason? it says Accel, but half the price?

Scroll all the way down. Listing state’s it’s made by Carbole. Look up carbole. You will find your answer on why so cheap. :thumbs

Glad you asked me. I can smell Chyna schit only a few other can. Deal with it every stinking day. Even from US companies.

Btw: i’ve seen the accells at Oreilly’s . If online doesn’t do it for you.

Looks like walmart online ordering the cheapest and just makes their free shipping amt. Ships from walmart - not some ‘who are they.’

$1 more at Amazon. Ships and sells from Amazon, not 3rd party seller, so should be legit.
