yes you can. I have a y7/z6 using the y7 dizzy. However it doesnt bolt right up. I had to modify the tabs for the mounting bolts on the diz housing. Running a p2p and vtec engages fine.

Re: (93accordsleeper)
You could get a conversion harness or repin the z6 into the y7 plug. Or

Re: (nub)
Or better still swap the guts out of the Y7 distributor into the Z6 case. I've done this between D15B7 and D16Z6 distributors before. I'm 99.9% sure that everything inside the OBD2A distributor is the same as the OBD1 versions.

Nail its head to a tree, cut all the way around its neck, grab a hold and pull down, there u go skinned cat! But swapping the guts sounds good if that works, thanks for the info guys
