Default Need Some Advice on Distributor Choice Z6/Y8

Alright, I've bought a couple of distributors and they've been wrong. What should I buy next?

Z6 Vtec Dizzy
Y8 Vtec Dizzy

Here's my Setup:
92 Civic Hatch DX
98 Y8 Motor

The dizzy's I've bought have been non-vtec (even though they've said they were) and do not line up. My biggest question is whether the angle of the cam is the same for the Z6 and Y8 motors.

The original dizzy is NOT available.

do you have your stock dizzy? you have to use a 92-95 dx dizzy when installing a y8 engine in a 5th gen.
