Caps and Rotors
Is OEM Distributor Caps and Rotors the best for my 97 LS400? or is a BOSCH replacement just as good? Is there another mo' betta way to go?
Thanks.
Thanks.

Which ever cheaper is best for me. Nick T might not agree with me on this, he likes OEM. Then again he doesn't have an Engineering degree

I am all for inexpensive ( not cheap ), but search around: online wholesale OEM parts tend to be about the same price as aftermarket. Why buy aftermarket if OEM is the same price?

I have vote for OEM, because it's a pain in the neck to replace the caps and rotors. You will need to tear down the front parts of timing belt cover in order to get to the caps and rotors. I alway recommended the customer to replace them when I do the water pump and timing belt, this way he just have to pay for parts. Just my 2 cents.
