Unless the bracket patterns are different, you don't need to swap dizzies if you're handy with your wiring. I wired up my car to work with either an OBD1 or OBD2 dizzy if it's what I can get my hands on. All I needed was an extra set of harness plugs for the distributor and I spliced them in. It's just a little more work.

Do you mean... will it fit under the hood, will it work with your ecu? Don't know where you're going with that. But if you can get the swap, get all the parts with it (ecu, harness, etc.). That will make your life easier. Get the injectors too (yet another plug difference).
