your joking, right?

you CANNOT run an obd1 distributor on an obd0 system. get the jumper, the ecu and the 4-wire o2 so you can get your car running.

The reluctor rings are different in OBD-0 and OBD-1 distributors. To run OBD-1 ECU you need an OBD-1 distributor as well as the extras that OBD-1 needs for sensors. Your vehicle will run with out some of the extras but it will run in limp mode.

To run a OBD-0 ECU you will need at OBD-0 distributor... you can't mix and match with OBD-0... but OBD-1 and OBD-2 are a little more lenient.
