Default Dizzy help

I have a 94 DX Coupe with a D16Z6 in it, my z6 dizzy went out a couple of weeks ago and i popped in a DX/LX dizzy for temp use, is there any way to put the bracket of my old Z6 dizzy onto my DX/LX one? my timing is way off because i can only bolt on 1 out of 3 holes.

I have a 2000 EK with a 95 GSR swap, I changed all of my dx electronics into the GSR housing so I didnt have to change dizzy plugs. It worked fine, both of the distributors were TEC. If the distributors look the same but just the housing that bolts to the head is different it will probably work, Any one else please chime in if im wrong.

It wasnt very hard. Took maybe an hour max to take both apart, switch the internals and put them both back together.

The most difficult thing is probably the rotor screw. If that thing is rusted or won't budge it's a royal PITA!
