Simply use the D16Y7 distributor, both are the same bolt pattern IIRC.

All of the wires are the exact same, just different colors and plugs are used. I have the wiring chart on my home computer (or search here as it's been discussed many of times) telling you which wire is what and into which position in the plug it goes.

Just pick up some OBD-1 distributor plugs and you can repin your OBD-2 distributor to it.
