Default Distributor King Rotor... what OEM rotor fits?

Alright, so I have a Distributor King distributor for a 94-95 Acura Integra LS. I know what OEM cap fits (1.5L 92-95 Civic)...

But what OEM rotor replaces the rotor that's in there already?

Only POSITIVE answers please, from people that have actually done it. I have already WASTEd $40 on 2 rotors because I received the wrong answer.

Do I have no other choice than to replace it with the non-shielded non-oem rotor?

The customer service department at Distributor King is excellent. Try sending them an email or giving them a call.

I can't think of ANYONE better to supply the answer you're looking for.

Their customer service has been great... but people make mistakes, and I was told an LS rotor "should" work, but it did not. So now, I'm looking for someone that has actually replaced their rotor with an OEM piece successfully.

So far, OBD I GSR and LS rotors do NOT work on the the OBDI Distributor King distributors. For some odd reason the LS and GSR rotors are different part numbers, which is why I actually gave both a try... I had a new GSR rotor sitting around.

Maybe a question for some of you gurus... is there a honda/acura distributor that has a larger shaft that the rotor mounts to? The GSR & LS rotors do not fit on the distributor king distributor because the mounting area in the OEM rotor itself is too small to fit on the shaft.

Go to a parts store and have them match it up. I for one have done this many times. And two rotors should not cost $40. That's waaaayy too much.

I wanted to put an OEM rotor on there... and at the dealer, it's roughly $16-$20 for the rotor... maybe I'm getting ripped off at my Acura Dealer, but it's the only thing I needed, so I'm not going to pay shipping & handling, which would make it even more expensive than what I paid....

Regarding distributor king's distributor, it's been working fine for me.

I had a distributor king dizzy for over a year (sat for 8 months and had 3 months of use). After a bit I had a bouncy tach (ignitor) so I called them and told them what's up. Instead of sending me a new ignitor they set me up with a whole new dizzy.
