Yes, you will.

AFAIK, OBD1 dist caps will fit OBD0, but not the other way around. If you look at the box end of your dizzy cap, one of the 90 degree corners has been bevelled in the OBD0 setup. The OBD1+ does not have this bevel. Aside from that, I belive the caps are all the same.

Running 99 CR-V dist cap on D16Z6 right now, I'd say it works fine.

no you don't need to change any of that. the "conversion" is done at the ecu harness. one thing i noticed though was that on my 2000 d16y8 the car idled and ran a lot better with the EVAP purge solenoid unplugged.

As you said, the conversion is done at the harness.
